This shows us the problem: you have not configured any DRBD resource in
Pacemaker hence it has no idea and control over it.

This is from one of my clusters:

Online: [ sl01 sl02 ]

 p_fence_sl01 (stonith:fence_ipmilan): Started sl02
 p_fence_sl02 (stonith:fence_ipmilan): Started sl01
* Master/Slave Set: ms_drbd [p_drbd_r0]*
*     Masters: [ sl01 sl02 ]*
 Clone Set: cl_dlm [p_controld]
     Started: [ sl01 sl02 ]
 Clone Set: cl_fs_gfs2 [p_fs_gfs2]
     Started: [ sl01 sl02 ]

You can notice the resources you are missing in bold, more specifically you
have missed to configure DRBD and it's MS resource then colocation and
contsraint resources too. So the "resource-and-stonith" hook in your drbd
config will never work, Pacemaker does not know about any drbd resources.

This is from one of my production clusters, it's on Ubuntu so no PCS just
CRM and I'm not using cLVM just DLM:

primitive p_controld ocf:pacemaker:controld \
op monitor interval="60" timeout="60" \
op start interval="0" timeout="90" \
op stop interval="0" timeout="100" \
params daemon="dlm_controld" \
meta target-role="Started"
*primitive p_drbd_r0 ocf:linbit:drbd \*
* params drbd_resource="r0" adjust_master_score="0 10 1000 10000" \*
* op monitor interval="10" role="Master" \*

* meta master-max="2" master-node-max="1" clone-max="2" clone-node-max="1"

primitive p_fs_gfs2 ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem \

op stop interval="0" timeout="60" \
meta is-managed="true"
clone cl_dlm p_controld \
meta globally-unique="false" interleave="true" target-role="Started"
clone cl_fs_gfs2 p_fs_gfs2 \
meta globally-unique="false" interleave="true" ordered="true"
target-role="Started"
colocation cl_fs_gfs2_dlm inf: cl_fs_gfs2 cl_dlm
*colocation co_drbd_dlm inf: cl_dlm ms_drbd:Master*
order o_dlm_fs_gfs2 inf: cl_dlm:start cl_fs_gfs2:start
*order o_drbd_dlm_fs_gfs2 inf: ms_drbd:promote cl_dlm:start
cl_fs_gfs2:start*

I have excluded the fencing stuff for brevity and highlighted the resources
you are missing. Check the rest though as well you might find something you
can use or cross-check with your config.

Also thanks to Digimer about the very useful information (as always) he
contributed explaining how the things actually work.
