This is a "command substitution" shell construct (new, blessed form
of `backtick` notation) that in this particular case was meant to
yield PID of running pcs command.  The whole compound command
was then meant to possibly discover what pcs is running under
the hood because that's what might get stuck.

Only if I got my guess about "pcs cluster stop" command stuck right,
which is not the case, as you explained.

In this another case, you really want to consult "systemctl status X"
for X in (corosync, pacemaker).   And to be really sure, for instance,
"pgrep Y" for Y in (pacemakerd, crmd, corosync).

(I hope I didn't confuse you too much due to the mentioned wild
guess originally).
