yes, i meant the latter.

thanks for the hint.  i gave crm command

property default-resource-stickiness=1

and it helped.  now the resources stay on node where they are working
ok.

i wonder why the line

location ms-drbd0-master-on-xen-1 ms-drbd0 rule role=master 100: #uname eq xen-1

is in the example config, because heartbeat seems to be doing what the
line says even without it.
