I forgot that I'd need to set

  set req.backend = member

within each of those, but testing out the rest of the
configuration as I outlined seems to work as I
expected.

If I simulate a failure by using .probe that will
never succeed, I see traffic for one group get
routed from its original server to a new one,
and when the .probe is reset to recover I see
the traffic move back.
