Okay. I was thinking about if 1 or 2 is what I wanted. Thanks for
clearance. I only added the migration-threshold attribute because the
cluster wasn't working as expected (and as it acted on my test vms)
Seems that I added another error instead of helping to fix the existing
one. Although migration-threshold was set to the wrong value for what I
wanted, shouldn't pacemaker have set failcount to 1 and then try to move
the resource away because migration-threshold was reached?

Anyway! I reinstalled pacemaker on one of the nodes in the meantime and
now everything works fine.

Then it should be okay for me to stick to the "old" repository.

Thanks for you help
