and do not forget to remove or regenerate the
/var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml.sig file.

moreover, i would also remove all /var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib-*.raw*
files (i do not know for sure, what they do ;) ). but to my experience,
it is save to remove them if you want to init a cluster "from scratch".
