[LinuxFailSafe] FailSafe does not failover resource group

Need help.

I have managed to install FailSafe 1.0.4 in Redhat 7.2
I configured two nodes with IP and Apache resources. They are part of one 
resource group. I am testing the failover process by switching off the 
machine that initially hosts the resource group but it does not seem to 
failover to the other node. I can, however, do an "admin move" of the group. 
"haStatus -a" reports that everything is working fine.

The only thing I could point to is that I am not using a system controller. 
I don't think it is the cause though. From what I understand(and from the 
list archives), its use is to reset the other node to protect data in a 
shared storage configuration. I don't use any shared storage so I do not 
think I should use sysctl.

I am not sure which /var/log/failsafe log to look at either.

TIA

Here's the result of haStatus -a:
