DNS retries doesn't seem to be working
Detailed Description of the Problem
We have a tcp passthrough to a DNS server, this caused us no issues until it's IP changed which required a restart
I added DNS resolvers to the config but that also failed during a failover
I then increased the retries to a high number in case it was taking longer than the defaults to switch IPs
However within an hour and no changes to the DNS the server disconnected and refused to connect again
Server back_d01/external-ingress-test is going DOWN for maintenance (DNS timeout status). 0 active and 0 backup servers left. 0 sessions active, 0 requeued, 0 remaining in queue.
backend back_d01 has no server available!
Expected Behavior
Connection to be reestablished after DNS becomes available
Steps to Reproduce the Behavior
Without resolvers, change the IP of the destination
With resolvers, do nothing...

Could you confirm there is no request sent to any of your 4 nameservers ? When the IP change occurs, could you provide 2 or 3 outputs of show resolvers
commands one minute apart. The message you saw is displayed when no response was received from any nameservers after the configured number of retries.
It may be related to #1286. Could you try DNS over TCP to perform your dynamic resolutions ?
FYI, the 2.6.8 was released. Since the 2.6.2, several bugs were fixed about the resolvers. I'm closing the issue. But if you are still hit by the issue, feel free to reopen it. Thanks !
