Hi Andrew, It will mark a worker as down and only send requests to "working" workers. There is a separate thread that checks the availability of all workers in an configurable time period which will mark the worker as available/functioning again when it becomes available, where after it will receive requests again. This is new functionality in the latest version of modjk(.27)
I am not sure whether the request that "determined" the unavailability of the worker will be retried though, I don't think so. There has been a previous thread in the list that discussed retrying requests and the caching of request. I believe the conclusion was that it would be possible to implement but not necessarily simple.
