It can be caused by token timeout + consensus timeout.

Basically try following config file:

---- CUT HERE ---

quorum {
          provider: corosync_votequorum
          two_node: 0
}
totem {
	version: 2

	crypto_cipher: none
         crypto_hash: none

	transport: udpu
	cluster_name: ClusterName
}

nodelist {
          node {
                  ring0_addr: 39.39.0.4
                  nodeid: 1
          }
          node {
                  ring0_addr: 39.39.0.5
                  nodeid: 2
          }
          node {
                  ring0_addr: 39.39.0.6
                  nodeid: 3
          }
}

--- CUT HERE ---

Replace ClusterName with something more clever and give it a try. This 
is almost minimal corosync.conf with default values and it usually works 
quite well. If you observe too much lost tokens, try increase token 
(timeout) but 60 seconds is too much. 10 should do the job.
