Hi Mark,
Thanks very much! I have  solved my problem by setting "allow-migrate=true"
for my VM resource.and I find something for migration in
pacemaker-explained:
9.3.4.1. Migration Checklist
• The resource may not be a clone.
• The resource must use an OCF style agent.
• The resource must not be in a failed or degraded state.
• The resource must not, directly or indirectly, depend on any primitive or
group resources.
• The resources must support two new actions: migrate_to and migrate_from
and advertise them in its
metadata.
-->The resource must have the allow-migrate meta-attribute set to true (not
the default).


I am so careless :).Thanks for your help.
