Not really, that should only happen if the two nodes can't see each
other. Which should not be the case.
Only when you pull the plug should orestes-tb be fenced.
Or if you're using a fencing device that requires the node to have
power, then I can imagine that turning it on again might result in
fencing.
But not for the other cases.
