Following is one of the use cases of Priority Group Activation.
A set of 4 servers has both web and ftp services running. The requirement is to have the first two servers serve web traffic and the last two servers serve ftp traffic, until any of them fails.
Ex. If the webservice fails on the first two servers, the web traffic gets distributed to the next priority group to meet the min-active-members condition, until the webservice resumes.
