Hi Chris,

 

I am currently trying to implement the same scenario, could you please help out. i have 2 pool members in a VS and i need a active standby scenario for the pool members. Below is what i have pool member 1 - priority 2 pool member 2 - priority 1

 

load balancing - round robin priority group activation - less than 1

 

the server team are telling me traffic is still coming to both servers. do you think i am missing something here.
