[Pgpool-general] Two primary servers

Hi pgpool experts, I am just experiencing with the 3.1alpha and having this case where I am not sure if it is the expected behavior.
I set up pgpool and a postgres 9.0.2 on one box and another postgres 9.0.2 on another box. I have also configured the pgpooladmin to work with them. On initial start, pgpool chooses the one with smaller id as primary and the other as standby. If I disconnect the primary via the PHP page, failover kicks in and makes the second box primary. But in the status, for the old primary, it still says "Down Running as primary server". Now try to bring the the connection back by clicking the 'Return' button, I get two primary servers. Please note that the old primary wasn't actually shutdown physically. Is this an expected case?
Thanks,
Rick
