> rgmanager has the notion of an ordered domain, where it will try to start services on the highest priority node in the domain.
> (see https://fedorahosted.org/cluster/wiki/FailoverDomains) 
> The problem arises like this:
> - start a 2 node cluster with an ordered domain. 
> - Create a queue and put and put enough messages on so that catchup takes longer than the time to restart node1
> - kill node1, rgmanager relocates qpidd-primary service to node2
> - immediately restart node1
> - rgmanager wants to relocate the service to node1 so it:
>   - kills the primary on node2 as first step of relocation
>   - attempts to restart the primary on node1 which fails
> because it is still in catchup and there is no primary to catch up
> from.
> - at this point we get into an infinite loop of failed attempts to
> restart the primary.
> The workaround is to set the nofailback option on the domain.
