breizho35, do you not need to just enable "manual resume" on the node1 monitor (i assume you have two monitors, a different one per node)?

 

This way if node1 fails, node 2 takes the traffic. if node1 comes back up then it needs manual intervention?

 

You could probably improve this with Priority Group Activation (if you haven't already). If node1 has a higher priority then once you manually resume that pool member all traffic should then be served by it, independent on node2 availability. See Priority-based member activation

 

Hope this helps. If not then an anonymised config of you pool setup may help.
