Apart from that, I dimly remember the host and port setting

For Round Robin, it follows the instance order of
configuration. If you configure all the instances on Server A,
then the ones on Server B, then C, it will load up Server A
first. You need to interleave the configurations. Is that what
you were thinking of?
Yeah right. One trick was to number the instances not
<host><port> but <port><host>.
Interesting idea. I thought it went by instance number.
It does. You just help with the numbering to assure it round
robins by-server first. Assume you use ports 1-3 on servers 4-5.
The numbering is then 14,15,16,24 etc. So next number goes to next
server.
Devious!
So selecting round robin distributes by instance ID?
Yes.
So that's why one has to number them like this in order to get by-
server first?
Or just configure them in the order you want the distribution to
follow (add instance 1 on server A, add instance 2 on server B, add
instance 3 on Server C, add instance 4 on server A...). Anjo's way
might be easier when setting up a lot of instances and servers.
