I've asked this before, you should be able to search the question.
Essentially if pacemaker is shut down gracefully the remaining nodes are
happy to leave it be.

Generally I standby the node and then stop openais ... I have been caught
out once bringing a node back online which was in standby. The logical
volumes were some how active on the node coming back into the cluster, the
monitor operations detected this (key here: monitor operations fire even in
standby I believe) and shut down resources on the active node as part of
the recovery process.
