Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-9404:
--------------------------------------

I actually saw this state on Azure which uses MsSQL.  More importantly, we 
often get this when checking out a connection from the pool, i.e. isRetryable() 
has to handle not having a Connection.... I can add the check but I think it 
will be of limited use at least for this type of error
