This happens across a few different clusters on a seemingly-random basis, so it will probably happen again some time soon.

You may take a look at /var/log/pcsd/pcsd.log. It may be worth enabling 
pcsd debugging in /etc/default/pcsd and restarting pcsd for the change 
to apply.

>> Pcsd is pcs daemon which is used to manage the cluster using pcs command line tool. It also provides web UI for cluster management. You can safely kill / restart pcsd without affecting the cluster in any way. If pcsd isn't running, it won't be possible to access its web UI (obviously) and some pcs commands will not work.

So, when I kill the runaway child processes, it appears that pcs commands all still work fine, as only the parent pcsd process, which is not killed, seems to be needed for that.  I have not used the web UI.
