[Linux-cluster] Node can't join already quorated cluster‏

I don't use fencing because with ha-lvm I thought that I dind't need it.
But also because both nodes are VMs in VMWare. I know that there is a
module to do fencing with vmware but I prefer to avoid it. I'm not in
control of the VMWare infraestructure and probably VMWare admins won't give
me the tools to use this module.

Regards, Javi
