# Weight

The relative proportion of actions to send to different child servers when LoadBalanceMethod=`2`.

NOTE:

If you set `Weight=0`, the engine is used only if no other child engine is available.

If you create a server group by specifying a comma-separated list of host names in the Host parameter, you can use a single value for `Weight` so that all child servers in the group have the same weight. Alternatively, you can use a comma-separated list to use different weights for each mirrored child server. In this case, there must be the same number of values in `Weight` as there are for Host.
