Yes. Exactly this is the point.

Yes and no. The point is that the HA-communication is done via RSCT and the versions of the RSCT packages have to be consistent throughout the cluster at any time. This is why you have to split up the cluster into single nodes at one point (precisely the point where you update the RSCT). During this phase communication would not be possible. But as each node is single at this time it doesn't recognize this inability to communicate.
I hope this helps.

Note
Increase the level of verbosity by providing additional instances.
--quiet, -Q
When doing an attribute query using -G, print just the value to stdout. Use this option with -G.
--get-value, -G
Retrieve rather than set the preference.
--delete-attr, -D
Delete rather than set the attribute.
--attr-value string, -v string
Value to set. This is ignored when used with -G.

Specify the UUID of the node to change.
--node-uname node_uname, -U node_uname
Specify the uname of the node to change.
--set-name string, -s string
Specify the set of attributes in which to read or write the attribute.
--attr-name string, -n string
Specify the attribute to set or query.
--type string, -t type
Determine to which section of the CIB the attribute should be set or to which section of the CIB the attribute that is queried belongs
Possible values are nodes, status, or crm_config.

+-----------+--------------------+
|status | -(U|u) -n [-s] |
+-----------+--------------------+
|crm_config | -n [-s] |
+-----------+--------------------+
EXAMPLES
Query the value of the location attribute in the nodes section for the host myhost in the CIB:
crm_attribute -G -t nodes -U myhost -n location
Query the value of the cluster-delay attribute in the crm_config section in the CIB:
crm_attribute -G -t crm_config -n cluster-delay
Query the value of the cluster-delay attribute in the crm_config section in the CIB. Print just the value:
crm_attribute -G -Q -t crm_config -n cluster-delay
Delete the location attribute for the host myhost from the nodes section of the CIB:
crm_attribute -D -t nodes -U myhost -n location
Add a new attribute called location with the value of office to the set subsection of the nodes section in the CIB (settings applied to the
host myhost):
crm_attribute -t nodes -U myhost -s set -n location -v office
Change the value of the location attribute in the nodes section for the myhost host:
crm_attribute -t nodes -U myhost -n location -v backoffice
FILES
/var/lib/heartbeat/crm/cib.xml--the CIB (minus status section) on disk. Editing this file directly is strongly discouraged.
