The CCM (part of heartbeat) is known not to be particularly awesome in
such scenarios and it appears to be the case again here:

Mar 16 01:35:31 oan1 crmd: [7601]: info: ccm_event_detail: NEW MEMBERSHIP:
trans=15, nodes=1, new=0, lost=0 n_idx=0, new_idx=1, old_idx=3

As far as pacemaker knows, its still all alone.

Perhaps give corosync 1.4.x a go instead of heartbeat?
