Hi David,
Whence the impression that sets aren't compatible with rtpengine_manage()?
https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.7.x/modules/rtpengine.html#rtpengine.f.set_rtpengine_set
"Sets the ID of the RTP proxy set to be used for the next rtpengine_delete(),
rtpengine_offer(), rtpengine_answer() or rtpengine_manage() command. The parameter
can be an integer or a config variable holding an integer."
Or are you using an earlier version of Kamailio in which this may not have been true?

We avoided sets because our Kamailio configuration uses rtpengine_manage(), which according to the documentation is not compatible with set_rtpengine_set(). I'll try it without the 11.x server and the large weights, and see if the calls are evenly distributed between the 22.x and 33.x servers then.

Can anyone please tell me why? The rtpengine server at 11.11.11.11 is intended to only receive calls if the other two are offline. Thank you very much.
