I was looking for the similar, but opposite functionality - on failover
when other director host takes traffic, in the beginning  the weight of the
servers is 0 until they've been checked by the 'checkcommand'. So despite
using conntrack to keep connections live we get timeouts, as no traffic is
forwarded to the real servers.

So, it would be nice also to have ability to declare initial weight for the
connections with RS with positive weight until otherwise is proven by
checkcommand.

With best regards,
Timur Bakeyev.
