Okay, so let's focus on what you *do* want to happen.

One MySQL instance fails.  Nothing else does.

What do you want next?

 - Cluster continues with a failed MySQL resource?

 - MySQL resource moves to another node but no other resources move?

 - something else I can't really imagine right now?


I'm sure that if you can define what you want the cluster to do in this 
situation (MySQL fails, all else continues okay), someone here can help you 
explain that to pacemaker.
