You've got the right idea.  I don't have a step by step guide crmsh, but
here's a basic MySQL deploy on shared storage that I test with pcs. I just
mount the shared storage partition to the /var/lib/mysql directory, then start
mysql. From there the database mysql uses exists on shared storage and can follow
the mysql instance wherever it goes in the cluster.
