Effectively, it seems to work fine to remove all .sig, modify cib.xml and 
start again Pacemaker ! That's really new for me who has looked, one year 
ago, for 
a way to configure Pacemaker from scratch, without starting it, and also
in certain cases patch the configuration of Pacemaker before starting it 
...
Could someone from Pacemaker team confirm that it should work in
any cases ? even if there is a risk to do such manual patch out of crm api
which checks before apply ... but in certain cases, it could be very very
useful, if we are sure it always work.

Thanks
Alain

Ends up that simply deleting cib.xml.sig and editing cib.xml works fine. 
HA fired right up with the new IPs.
