[ClusterLabs] Why my node1 couldn't back to the clustering chain?

[Jason Long]

Thanks.
Thus, my cluster uses Node1 when Node2 is down?

I would add that it is generally preferable, in fact, to leave a resource 
where it is unless there's a good reason to move it.

Imagine for example that you have three nodes and a resource is running on 
node A.

Node A fails, the resource moves to node C, and node A then comes back again.

If the resource then got moved back to node A just because it had recovered, 
you've now had two transitions of the resource (each of which means *some* 
downtime, however small that may be), whereas if it remains running on node C 
until such time as there's a good reason to move it away, you've only had one 
transition to cope with.
