Glad you got it working. I did my best to explain why to answer your question below...

Fair enough - I looked quickly and I believe it used to be better explained in some older documentation. How about Because? ;-) I believe it goes a little something like this... collocate resource B on A. Once the cluster has determined where to start A then B can start regardless of whether or not A has completed its start action. Think of resource A as something that takes 30 seconds to start. Then assume resource B requires it to be completely started before it can successfully start up. Now resource B fails to start... with an exit code that non-standard because something it's looking for is missing (since resource A isn't started yet) = infinity failure on current node. This will cause the cluster to move resource B to another node except no other nodes have resource A running which results in resource B being unable to run on any node. Add ordering A then B. Now the cluster will wait till A finishes starting (or for multi-state/DRBD promoting) before starting B on the same node. Everyone is happy. Does that make sense?
