When one node disappears, the other one will (or should) try to STONITH it to 
make sure it's really, truly dead.  Only when STONITH succeeds will that node's 
resources be taken over by the remaining node.

I suspect the problem in your case is that IPMI STONITH can't succeed when run 
against a node that has no power, because it is unable to respond to IPMI 
requests.
