Even with "cman" you're still using corosync, just in a particular way.
Essentially cman is just a corosync plugin that exposes a specific API.

By having pacemaker use the cman API on RHEL6 we were able to minimise the support overhead (since all the testing they do for rgmanager still applied), which is what made it possible for pacemaker to become supported prior to RHEL7.
