This is not such a huge issue when you do the "round-robin" with very short (non-zero!) TTLs on the A records. It was worse some years ago when some resolvers would sort answers, but I don't think anything still does that.

Do you mean providing different DNS record when one of servers is down?

I mean, providing multiple IP addresses: clients that first try to connect to address that is down will complain that the connection takes too long.
