1. 'unavailable' means the server will automatically and temporarily be
   removed from the pool of servers managed by the upstream (same effect as
   manually parametering it as down)
   2. the fail_timeout parameter documentation of the very section you
   provided a link to is pretty clear: this value both configure the duration
   during which the parametered amount of failure must be recorded and the
   time during which the server will subsequently be unavailable
