1) As far as I know, no, mod_jk does not read workers.properties
dynamically.
2) Yes and no, it will not send a request unless communication has been
established with the worker, it may happen that the worker fails, or
someone shut it down. Depending on how you configure the workers and the
number of workers, it can retry the request and/or try a different
worker. Mod_jk will mark the worker on error when it does not respond,
and it will try again after a configurable time -but it tries again with
an actual request-.

Couple of questions regarding mod_jk:

1. Does apache read worker.properties dynamically? So if I change
worker.property would it be dynamically read by mod_jk.

2. Does mod_jk check if the system is up and running before forwarding
that request to the server configured in worker.properties file?
