Works great for a day or so, then seizes up, simple commands like `crm_standby -v true` timeout after 120 seconds, etc. We're testing for release, and keep running into issues like this. At first we suspected firewall issues, but even after confirmed operation and several hand-offs of HA services back and forth, it still dies within a day or so.

I do.

It is right when you start seeing messages like:
Sep 19 00:56:09 [9004] nomad.schoolpathways.com       crmd:     info: send_ais_text: 	Peer overloaded or membership in flux: Re-sending message (Attempt 1 of 20)

Eventually that escalates to:
Sep 19 00:59:39 [9004] nomad.schoolpathways.com       crmd:    error: send_ais_text: 	Sending message 94 via cpg: FAILED (rc=6): Try again: Success (0)

From this we can infer that corosync has gotten horribly confused and, as a consequence, pacemaker can't talk to its peers anymore.

Shortly before this, Corosync claims:

Sep 19 00:47:07 corosync [TOTEM ] A processor joined or left the membership and a new membership was formed.
Sep 19 00:56:09 [9004] nomad.schoolpathways.com       crmd:     info: pcmk_cpg_membership: 	Left[2.0] crmd.1 
Sep 19 00:56:09 [9004] nomad.schoolpathways.com       crmd:     info: crm_update_peer_proc: 	pcmk_cpg_membership: Node bender.schoolpathways.com[1] - corosync-cpg is now offline
Sep 19 00:56:09 [9004] nomad.schoolpathways.com       crmd:     info: peer_update_callback: 	Client bender.schoolpathways.com/peer now has status [offline] (DC=true)

Is this true?
If not, perhaps some timeouts need to be adjusted.  A switch to udpu (instead of multicast) may also be helpful.
