Issue

  • When the primary node is up before the second node it fences it after a certain amount of time has past. Which is expected. however, once the standby node is fenced the resources are started up by the cluster. But, when the standby node remains down and out of the cluster I can't seen to manage any of resources with the pcs commands
  • A node rebooted, starts back up, but is not configured to start pacemaker, yet the other cluster nodes show it as "pending" and can't manage any of their resources.
  • pcs commands have no effect while a node shows as "pending"

Environment
