-==== Backup Voting
+==== Passive Voting
 
-If a backup loses its replication connection to its primary it will initiate a 
quorum vote in order to decide whether to activate or not.
-It will keep voting until it either receives a vote allowing it to start or it 
detects that the primary is still active.
-In the latter case it will then restart as a backup.
+If a passive broker loses its replication connection to the active broker it 
will initiate a quorum vote in order to decide whether to activate or not.
+It will keep voting until it either receives a vote allowing it to start or it 
detects that the previously connected broker is still active.
+In the latter case it will then restart as passive.

-==== Primary Voting
+==== Active Voting
 
-By default, if the primary server loses its replication connection to the 
backup then it will just carry on and wait for a backup to reconnect and start 
replicating again.
-However, this may mean that the primary remains active even though the backup 
has activated so this behavior is configurable via the 
`vote-on-replication-failure` property.
