Indeed. In a case as complex as this, more is better -- a copy of the
configuration and the output of crm_report would be helpful (with any
sensitive info removed).

Any idea why the demote failed?

Normally failed diffs shouldn't cause any problems, other than extra
network/disk traffic for a full CIB sync.

There have been many bugs fixed since 1.1.10, and I think some of them
relate to cib diffs. Since you're doing everything custom, you might as
well use latest upstream libqb/corosync/pacemaker releases (btw current
pacemaker master branch has been stable and will soon become the basis
of 1.1.14rc1).

Have you been able to reproduce the issue on a test cluster? That would
be important to investigating further. You could set PCMK_debug=yes (I'm
guessing that would be in /etc/default/pacemaker on ubuntu) to get more
logs.

This is bad; it seems like lrmd stops responding entirely. Are there any
interesting lrmd logs before this?

Again, if you can reproduce the issue with your existing versions, I'd
recommend testing whether it still occurs with a newer version.

This doesn't make sense. You should see a crmd log message about
"Executing ... fencing operation" and then stonith-ng logs about the
actual execution. I can't think of any reason that wouldn't happen, even
if fencing failed. I'd have to see more logs, but again, it would be
worth trying to reproduce with newer versions.

This has no obvious cause either. The interesting parts would be earlier
when crmd asked lrmd to execute the actions. You could check the
corresponding master1 logs to see whether it's getting the lrmd requests
successfully and what it tries to do with them if so.

No, there's no reason in any of that to cause problems with fencing. As
long as master2 can talk to master1's IPMI interface, fencing should
proceed regardless of all that.

Not that I'm aware of, but if so, they're probably on this list. :) You
might ask whether one of the traditional vendors would do so on a

of this one.
