The meaning of the options is relative. For this sample haresources file:

nodea drbddisk::r0 Filesystem::/dev/drbd0::/local/groups::ext3 10.0.0.1 smb

nodeb drbddisk::r1 Filesystem::/dev/drbd1::/local/ldap::ext3 10.0.0.2 ldap

hb_standby local

When run on nodea, means migrate any resources that nodea is the preferred node for. In this case Samba would be shutdown, the IP address 10.0.0.1 would be released, /local/groups would be unmounted, /dev/drbd0 would be placed into secondary and nodeb would take all these services over. When run on nodeb, OpenLDAP would shutdown, 10.0.0.2 would be released, /local/ldap would be unmounted, /dev/drbd1 would be placed into Secondary mode and nodea would take over all these services.

hb_standby foreign

When run on nodea, means migrate any resources that nodea is NOT the preferred node for. In this case OpenLDAP would shutdown, 10.0.0.2 would be released, /local/ldap would be unmounted, /dev/drbd1 would be placed into Secondary mode and nodeb would take over all these services. When run on nodeb, Samba would be shutdown, the IP address 10.0.0.1 would be released, /local/groups would be unmounted, /dev/drbd0 would be placed into secondary and nodea would take all these services over.

hb_standby all

Regardless of which node it's run on means to release all resources so the other node takes over all resources.

hb_standby

Without an argument is the same as "hb_standby all"

hb_standby failback

Same as "hb_standby foreign"
