Thank you all for your answer. I installed it and began to try to play 
with it, and it seems to be EXACTLY what I was looking for.

It's still not clear for me to see what I have to install on the 
"stonith" targets - or who is eventually in charge of applying the kill 
action (the manager, one node, any node ?) but I promise I'm still 
reading and testing on my own.

Thank you, have a nice day.
