Here's something to read about dopd:

These are 2 differnt things:
dopd is for outdating the secondaries DRBD-resources in case of DRBD 
split-brain, which is not the same as Heartbeat split-brain. It only works, if 
there are Heartbeat-lines which are different from DRBD-connection.

Pingd is for checking connectivity to other ping nodes (such as routers or 
switches) and maybe to switch the resources in case that other cluster-nodes 
have better connectivity
