I know there is the nodeid thing that affects corosync 2.0 clusters,
but that shouldn't affect existing cman and plugin based clusters.
Was there something else?

There is no OneTruePath.  Just whatever your preference is.
There are a number of GUIs to choose from and two shells.

pcs is the most recent alternative, I'll be pushing up a pcs edition
of Clusters from Scratch later today.
I believe Chris will be doing a release in the next week, but for the
impatient, the source lives at https://github.com/feist/pcs

To get the most out of pcs, you need to be running corosync 2.0 (since
it can configure/manage the corosync configuration too).
