Haproxy will get 404 error for about 2-3 seconds if one of backend server down

this is the haproxy config.

server host2 11.11.11.12:9080 check inter 2000 rise 1 fall 2

if service of 11.11.11.11 is down, haproxy will get 503 and 404 error about 2-3 seconds( it depends inter value, if inter value is very small, the number of 404 error will be decreased).

My question is : why the parameter retry didn’t work ? is it possible for the user always get 200 code rather than 400 error even when one of the backend server down ? I’m using Haproxy 1.5.18.
