What is virtualServerAlpha?

Whether 'alpha mode' is enabled for this virtual server, which starts all real servers in a down state until their first successful health check, rather than assuming them healthy at startup. Admins enable this to avoid briefly sending traffic to real servers that haven't actually been verified yet.
