I wanted to test the split-brain situation too and the recovery from it. 
I also wanted to test a pingd resource and location we also have 
configured to see it the node put down the resources correctly when it 
detects no connection to the gateway.

Anyway, I have checked this situation and configuration successfully 
"pulling the network cable" from virtualcenter, but i got worried 
finding out that openais crashed and could not recover when the network 
interface gets down.

Thanks!
