>From what I hear, qdisk is definitely over-used. In the world of pacemaker, we don't rely on quorum to the extent that other resource managers do - so we have no real need to fake having it. In your situation fencing[1] + no-quorum-policy="ignore" should normally be sufficient. Or add a third with standby=true set (prevents it from hosting resources) to act as a tie-breaker.
