I am not an expert, but could you show us your cluster.conf file ?
You need to give a "nodename" attribute to the fence_manual agent somewhere,
the error message makes me think it's missing.
For example :
<fencedevices>
<fencedevice agent="fence_manual" name="my_fence_manual"/>
</fencedevices>
...
<clusternode name="node2" ...>
<fence>
<method name="1">
<device name="my_fence_manual" nodename="node2"/>
</method>
</fence>
</clusternode>
