Of course: the steps for adding a new virtual machine are:

- put the original resource in unmanaged;
- clone the original resource via virt-clone;
- add a primitive for the new vm;
- add an oredr/colocation constraint over the storage;
- add a location based upon the ping like this one:

location loc_res_VirtualDomain_vm_connectivity res_VirtualDomain_vm \
        rule -inf: not_defined ping or ping lte 0

At this point somethings breaks up. The ping resource of the node where
the vm will be placed fails, making all the resources on it migrate.

I'm not using fping (maybe this could be a solution) and the timeout of
the ping resource is 20 (which for me, makes sense).

I'm using them to check if a resource (the vm) is on a node which can
reach the outside world. So one vm = one location. Is there a way to set
a location on an entire node so that if it looses the outside world all
the resources on it are migrated? I was convinced that this kind of
locations should be set up on the single resource.

Thanks,
