[pgpool-general: 5120] PGPool failover backend communication error clarification

Hi,

I have a question regarding the fail_over_on_backend_error option,
specifically what exactly constitutes a backend communication error.
Consider a client connecting to a server through pgpool. If for some reason
a SQL error is returned by the server before a SQL connection is
established (e.g. an ErrorResponse during start-up, see
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/protocol-flow.html) would
this constitute a backend communication error and mark the server as down?
I assume that this would be the case during normal health check procedures.

Best,
Alfonso
