Thank you for looking past the fencing issue to the real question. Regardless of whether or not fencing was enabled, there should still be some indication of what actions the cluster took and why, but it appears that cluster services just terminated silently.

Me neither.

Yes. CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804.

The only log entry showing Pacemaker startup that I found in any of the messages files (current and several days of history) was the one when I started the cluster manually (see below).

Agreed. From looking at the cluster log, it appears that it just stopped making log entries at 9:40. Then at 11:49, I found the cluster service stopped and started them...
