Okay, I think I've almost got this.  I updated my Pacemaker config
and
made a few changes.  I put the MysqlIP and mysqld primitives into a
resource group called "mysqld-resources", ordered them such that
mysqld
will always wait for MysqlIP to be ready first, and added constraints
to
make ha1 the preferred host for the mysqld-resources group and ha2
the
failover host.  I also created STONITH devices for both ha1 and ha2,
and
added constraints to fix the STONIOTH location issues.  My new
constraints section looks like this:

<constraints>
<rsc_location id="loc-1" rsc="stonith-ha1" node="ha2"
score="INFINITY"/>
<rsc_location id="loc-2" rsc="stonith-ha2" node="ha1"
score="INFINITY"/>
Don't need the 2 above as long as you have the 2 negative locations below for 
stonith locations.  I prefer the negative below because if you ever expanded to 
greater than 2 nodes the stonith for any node could run on any node but itself.

Good call.  I'll take those out of the config.

<rsc_location id="loc-3" rsc="stonith-ha1" node="ha1"
score="-INFINITY"/>
<rsc_location id="loc-4" rsc="stonith-ha2" node="ha2"
score="-INFINITY"/>
<rsc_location id="loc-5" rsc="mysql-resources" node="ha1"
score="200"/>
Don't need the 0 score below either - the 200 above will take care of it.  
Pretty sure no location constraint is the same as a 0 score location.

That was based on the example found in the documentation. If I don't have the 0 score entry, will the service still fail over?

<rsc_location id="loc-6" rsc="mysql-resources" node="ha2" score="0"/>
</constraints>

Everything seems to work.  I had the virtual IP and mysqld running on
ha1, and not on ha2.  I shut down ha1 using "poweroff -n" and both
the
virtual IP and mysqld came up on ha2 almost instantly.  When I
powered
ha1 on again, ha2 shut down the the virtual IP and mysqld.  The
virtual
IP moved over instantly; a continuous ping of the IP produced one
"Time
to live exceeded" message and one packet was lost, but that's to be
expected.  However, mysqld took almost 30 seconds to start up on ha1
after being stopped on ha2, and I'm not exactly sure why.

Here's the relevant log output from ha2:

And here's the relevant log output from ha1:

So, ha2 stopped mysqld at 11:42:50, but ha1 didn't start mysqld until
11:43:36, a full 46 seconds after it was stopped on ha2.  Any ideas
why
the delay for mysqld was so long, when the MysqlIP resource moved
almost
instantly?
Couple thoughts.

Are you sure both servers have the same time (in sync)?

Yep.  They're both using NTP.

On HA2 did verify mysqld was actually done stopping at the 11:42:50 mark?
I don't use mysql so I can't say from experience.

Yes, I kept checking (with "ps -ef | grep mysqld") every few seconds, and it stopped running around that time. As soon as it stopped running on ha2, I started checking on ha1 and it was quite a while before mysqld started. I knew it was at least 30 seconds, and I believe it was actually 42 seconds as the logs indicate.

Just curious but do you really want it to failback if it's actively running on 
ha2?

Interesting point. I had just assumed that it was good practice to have a preferred node for a service, but I guess it doesn't matter. If I don't care which node the services run on, do I just remove the location constraints for the "mysql-resources" group altogether?

Could you include the output of '$crm configure show' next time?  I read that 
much better/quicker than the xml pacemaker config :-)

Thanks so much for all of your help, Jake! I'm new to all of this, and I really appreciate it.

Here's the requested output:

        stonith-enabled="true"

Also, I verified that STONITH is working. I unplugged the network cable on ha1 when the virtual IP and mysqld were running. ha2 promptly took over the services and used STONITH to shut down ha1 via iLO. So, that part works and flawlessly. There was once again a delay between the mysqld shutdown on ha2 and startup on ha1 after I brought ha1 back online, though. Not as bad as before, about 25 seconds this time. It seems that the delay only occurs when the non-preferred node relinquishes control of the resources back to their preferred node following a failover. If I stop preferring one node for the services, this might not be an issue any longer.
