2-Node is perfectly fine, you just need to be aware of a couple things
(like prioritized fencing via 'delay="x"' and setting corosync to
wait_for_all).

Nothing will work until the nodes are online.

Pacemaker logs is what you want. Once corosync is configured properly
(and let pacemaker start it), you can basically forget that corosync exists.

Enable fencing. It keeps your cluster sane and predictable.

Run 'tail -f -n 0 /var/log/messages' on both nodes and then start
pacemaker on both nodes. Use fpaste to share the log output please.

Long messages here are fine.
