Instead of: colocation resX-resY -2: resX resY Try: colocation resX-resY -2: resY resX Because: The cluster decides where to put "with-rsc" (the second one), then decides where to put "rsc" (the first one). You have: location resX-nodeA resX -inf: nodeA.acme.com location resY-loc resY 1: nodeB.acme.com If it decides where to put resY first, it puts resY on nodeB. Then it tries to place resX, wants to place it where resY is not (nodeA), but can't, due to the -inf score for resX on nodeA. So in this case, resX lands on nodeB as well. If it decides where to put resX first, it puts resX on nodeB because of the -inf score for nodeA. Then it puts resY on nodeA, because of the -2 score for the colocation constraint.
