I can be mistaken, but I believe that there must be constant communication between the nodes of the cluster, or the CRM will declare the non-communicating nodes dead. It means that there must be an IP address fixed on every host in the cluster, or you should use heartbeat over a serial interface (which I am not sure stills supported). My implementation have different nodes of the cluster in different data centres, to increase reliability. It also implies that there's no serial communication between them, and everything depends on IP. I have several different networks attached to the host, and am researching a way to assure that heartbeat can use any of the cables in any of the networks to send and receive heartbeat signal. I hope that this gives you more insights.
