how many communication paths do you have?
is heartbeat using (only?) the network you unplugged?

> 2- Same problem whith resource's failure, at the end of the sixth failure (depends of my configuration stickiness), the resources are failover on the standby node BUT again, stonith doesn't shoot the node.

as long as the resource stops correctly, there is no need to shoot the node
