You can use a manual fencing ACK.

But I'd not even bother with OCFS2 (or GFS2, for the matter) if you
don't have fencing. It's not worth the pain.

You could use SBD, but since you're running OCFS2 on top of DRBD, you
can't. For your lab setup though you could use a third VM with an iSCSI
target as the storage back-end.
