Please look at errata notes for bugs fixed.  Especially look at magma,
magma-plugins, and rgmanager bugzillas.  Some patches may be incremental
(and therefore may not apply to U2).  Several bugs may cause this
symptom.

Here are the errata:

If you would like to fork U2, your quickest bet to get something working
is to take a diff of the sources between U2 and U4 and pull out things
like resource agent changes and such.

You can run the U4 version of magma-plugins, magma, and rgmanager on the
U2 infrastructure if this makes it your particular environment.  That
is, you can leave cman[-kernel], dlm[-kernel], ccsd, gfs, and the rest
of the system at U2, and just upgrade magma, magma-plugins, and
rgmanager (though, you can safely update ccsd too) if you want, and it
will probably save you time and effort.
