As Emmanuel said, yes, it is needed to avoid dual-fencing in two-node
clusters, though the issue is not restricted to rhcs (or any HA
clustering that allows two nodes).

The node with the 'delay="15"' will have a 15 second head-start, so in a
network partition triggered fence, the node with the delay should always
live and the node without the delay will be immediately fenced.

What version of pacemaker are you using?
