Thanks for the help, I found the issue.  The problem was a boot order 
thing.  I was starting libvirt after the cluster, so the VM resetting on 
unfencing wasn't because of the monitor, it was because it tried to 
migrate, found that it couldn't, failed, then stopped the resource and 
tried again, but the second time libvirt was up, so it worked.

I have another question:

How do I access to resource 'reload' action on my custom resource using 
crmsh?

I don't see a 'crm resource reload' and it appears that a restart causes 
all of the resources that depend on it to stop/start.  My resource does 
have a reload action and the 'crm ra info' shows the action, I just 
can't seem to call it.

Thanks,
Matt
