The recent crm shell history feature helps with reading logs.
There's an rpm (crmsh) for some distributions available at OBS:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/ha-clustering
It supports all Pacemaker versions 1.1.x.

Note that you'll have to enfore overwriting some files of
pacemaker when installing crmsh.

There's also some documentation currently in works, hope to have
it ready for publication soon, in a week or two. The history
feature is of course fully documented in the crm help.

If you prefer mouse, the Hawk GUI, available from the same
repositories, also has a feature called History Explorer which
relies on the shell history.

Thanks,

Dejan
