      I have in-bound load balancing working perfectly between two HTTP servers.  I want to add a third HTTP server to the pool, would that cause the SLBD daemon to stop/restart resulting in an brief outage?  Or can I add servers to the pool on the fly and not have the existing connections be affected?

        It should not bring down already established connections afaik and if it would do so it would only take 5 seconds as this is the interval that slbd checks the servers for availability and reintegrates them as available in the pool.
