****************************************************************
When failover happens for a session having affinity, plugin
always tries to get the first available server in the list.
In such a scenario, if primary and backup servers are not
defined, plugin should try to use load balancing mechanism
to select the server.
Problem conclusion
When plugin can't connect to the affinity server, it will
look for first available server only when primary and
backup servers are defined. When primary and backup servers
are not defined, it will use the selected load balancing
mechanism (random or RoundRobin) to select the server.
