[ClusterLabs] no clone for pcs-based cluster fencing?

I'm looking at a new pcs-style two node cluster running on CentOS 7
(pacemaker 1.1.13, corosync 2.3.4) and crm_mon shows this line
for my fencing resource, that is the resource running on only one of
the two nodes:
fence_cl2 (stonith:fence_apc_snmp): Started nodeB
On an older CentOS 5 cluster (pacemaker 1.0.12, corosync 1.2.7),
crm_mon shows as the comparable line the following, that is the
fencing agent cloned across both nodes:
Clone Set: pdu-fence
Started: [ node1 node2 ]
With the new pcs-based clusters, are the (APC SNMP) fencing agents not
supposed to be cloned anymore, or do I just have things misconfigured?
Looking at the pcs man page, it looks like cloning a fencing agent isn't
supported.
I was pretty sure I tested fencing on both nodes when I first configured
the cluster, but I don't have a record of where the fencing agent was
running at the time. I was using the RHEL7 cluster configuration guide
and I don't seem to see anything in there talking about cloning the fencing
agent, so I'm wondering if it's no longer a recommended/required procedure.
New cluster config:
Stonith Devices:
Resource: fence_cl2 (class=stonith type=fence_apc_snmp)
Attributes: pcmk_host_list=nodeA,nodeB ipaddr=192.168.1.200
community=somepass pcmk_host_check=static-list
Operations: monitor interval=60s (fence_cl2-monitor-interval-60s)
Old cluster config:
primitive st-pdu stonith:apcmastersnmp \
params ipaddr="192.168.1.200" community="somepass" port="161" \
op start interval="0" timeout="60s" \
op stop interval="0" timeout="15s" \
op monitor interval="3600" timeout="60s"
clone pdu-fence st-pdu
