pgpool question

I'm experimenting with pgpool 2.51 on my Linux box runnung
two postgresql backends: pg74:5432 and pg801:5433

I configured pgpool to use pg74:5432 as primary backend and
pg801:5433 as second one. Pgpool is running on default port (9999) and
I configured my web application to use it, so I could start/stop backends
without disturbing client (web browser).

When I stop primary backend (pg74:5432) pgpool switched to backend
failover from (5432) to (5433) done
but when I start primary and stopped secondary backend pgpool
never switched back to primary backend as expected !
I see bogus message like:
starting failover from (5433) to (5433)

What I'm doing wrong ?

Regards,
Oleg
