No, the unmount in the end succeded.

I am sorry, I don't know what does it mean. You could check the logs
from peer node. Or it could be caused by use of ipfail instead of
pingd. I don't know.

Yes, Pacemaker is your choice. It could be seen as a bit complex for
the first sight. But as heartbeat V1 is not supported anymore, you
don't have any other option if you will have to deal with some issues
(like this one could be).
The sooner the better. Documentation for first-timers is briliant now,
do not worry. Check "Cluster from scratch"
