I'm attempting to implement a 3 node cluster where only 2 nodes are
there to actually run the services and the 3rd is there to form a quorum
(so that the cluster stays up when one of the 2 'workload' nodes fails).

To this end, I added a location avoids contraint so that the services
(including drbd) don't get placed on the 3rd node (drbd3)...

pcs constraint location ms_drbd avoids drbd3.localdomain

the problem is that this constraint doesn't appear to be enforced and I
see failed actions where Pacemaker has attempted to start the services
on drbd3. In most cases I can just ignore the error but if I attempt to
migrate the services using "pcs move" then it causes a fatal startup
loop for drbd. If I migrate by adding an extra location contraint
preferring the other workload node then I can migrate ok.

I'm using Oracle Linux 6.4; drbd83-utils 8.3.11; corosync 1.4.1; cman
3.0.12.1; Pacemaker 1.1.8 & pcs 1.1.8


I'm no quorum-node expert but I believe your initial design isn't optimal.
You could probably even run with only two nodes (real nodes) and no-quorum-policy=ignore + fencing (for data integrity) [1]
This is what most (all?) people with two nodes clusters do.

But if you really believe you need to be quorate, then I think you need to define your third node as quorum-node in corosync/cman (not sure how since EL6.4 and CMAN) and I cannot find a valid link. IIRC with such definition, you won't need the location constraints.
