It was THER SAME cluster. Just disk IO was unusial - it worked as
- delayed for 10 seconds (approx)
- then all IO comes thru
- then delayed again
- loop

As a result, cluster did not recognized IO problems and never saw a second
node (so conflicted for the heartbeat slot).

To make it work, we just fixed iSCSI config and recreated OCFS2 fs, but did
not touched cluster configuration.
