You need to setup a skeleton cluster.conf file. You can use the 'ccs' 
tool, here is an example (I use for my cluster, adjust the names to suit):

ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --createcluster an-anvil-04
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --setcman two_node="1" expected_votes="1"
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addnode an-a04n01.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addnode an-a04n02.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addfencedev pcmk agent=fence_pcmk
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addmethod pcmk-redirect 
an-a04n01.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addmethod pcmk-redirect 
an-a04n02.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addfenceinst pcmk 
an-a04n01.alteeve.ca pcmk-redirect port=an-a04n01.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --addfenceinst pcmk 
an-a04n02.alteeve.ca pcmk-redirect port=an-a04n02.alteeve.ca
ccs -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf --setfencedaemon post_join_delay="30"
