Question on Service-least-connection Lb method

Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding the Service-least-connection load balancing method.
If I configure this and a new sevrer is added to the group, will there be a burst of connections to this server, as it has the fewest connections? If so, is there any way to prevent or mitigate this?
Many thanks in advance!

Yes there is.
Have you checked the "slow-start" option. (see the SLB guide)
"The slow-start feature allows time for a server or real service port to ramp up after TCP/UDP service on a server is enabled, by temporarily limiting the total concurrent connections on the server or port."
great, that's exactly what I was looking for!
Many thanks!
