I get this message, but I don't think the pacemaker part is working at all.

If I run crm_mon, I get "Attemping connection to the cluster.............."
So it looks broken - but the logs show successful node joining and
exiting as I start and stop openais on both nodes. So something is
working.

Trying "crm configure" gives me the error:
Signon to CIB failed: connection failed
Init failed, could not perform requested operations
ERROR: cannot parse xml: no element found: line 1, column 0

So it looks like a cib.xml file is missing, but I can't see anywhere
in the guide where the xml file was meant to be created. Should it
ship with the distro?
