Description

If a request is not able to acquire a connection from the connection pool for a particular duration, it will fail with a Timeout Exception and also mark the host as unreachable [1] which is not necessarily true. A request might not be able to get a connection from the pool because the pool configuration has been set to a very low number or all the connections are genuinely busy serving existing requests. It does not imply host being unreachable.
