I don't think corosync 1.1 can do that, but I guess in this case cman should be able provide this functionality. > >can use that.

The first node to notice that the other is unreachable will fence (kill) the other, making sure it is the only one operating on the shared data. Even though it is only half of the node, the cluster is considered quorate as the other node is known not to be running any cluster resources. When the fenced node reboots its cluster stack starts, but with no quorum until it comminicates with the surviving node again. So no cluster services are started there until both nodes communicate properly and the proper quorum is recovered.
