Please check the below configuration
[root at node1 alerts]# pcs config show

 node1 node2 node3

Resources:
 Resource: TRR (class=ocf provider=heartbeat type=TimingRedundancyRA)
  Operations: start interval=0s timeout=60s (TRR-start-interval-0s)
              stop interval=0s timeout=20s (TRR-stop-interval-0s)
              monitor interval=10 timeout=20 (TRR-monitor-interval-10)

Stonith Devices:

Location Constraints:
  Resource: TRR
    Enabled on: node1 (score:100) (id:location-TRR-node1-100)
    Enabled on: node2 (score:200) (id:location-TRR-node2-200)
    Enabled on: node3 (score:300) (id:location-TRR-node3-300)
Ordering Constraints:

Resources Defaults:
 resource-stickiness: INFINITY
Operations Defaults:
 No defaults set

Cluster Properties:
 cluster-infrastructure: corosync
 dc-version: 1.1.15-11.el7_3.4-e174ec8

Please let me know if I m missing anything.
