Yes, it likely would as this would do a ifdown on the network interfaces.
However, as we could confirm in Syslog our issues always originated at boot time
and only affected us later when the other remaining ring failed also. We are
adding monitoring to detect any of the rings being marked faulty. In this case
we are warned and we could try to recover the ring manually in case the
automatic recovery had given up.

I wish the health state of each ring per node would be available cluster wide,
but I have not found out how. Instead I need to gather the output of
"corosync-cfgtool -s" on each node.
