Replication environment priorities
Each database environment included in a replication group must have a priority, which specifies a relative ordering among the different environments in a replication group. This ordering determines which environment will be selected as a new master in case the existing master fails.
Priorities must be a non-negative integer, but do not need to be unique throughout the replication group. A priority of 0 means the system can never become a master, regardless. Otherwise, larger valued priorities indicate a more desirable master. For example, if a replication group consists of three database environments, two of which are connected by an OC3 and the third of which is connected by a T1, the third database environment should be assigned a priority value which is lower than either of the other two.
