319319# ## Health Checks
320320
321- Trino Gateway checks the health of each backend and **deactivates it if
322- unhealthy**. A backend that fails a health check must be manually reset to
323- active. Automatic recovery is not supported.
321+ The Trino Gateway periodically performs health checks and maintains
322+ an in-memory TrinoStatus for each backend. If a backend fails a health check,
323+ it is marked as UNHEALTHY, and the Trino Gateway stops routing requests to it.
324+
325+ It is important to distinguish TrinoStatus from the active/inactive
326+ state of a backend. The active/inactive state indicates whether a backend is
327+ manually turned on or off, whereas TrinoStatus is programmatically determined
328+ by the health check process. Health checks are only performed on backends
329+ that are marked as active.
330+
331+ See [TrinoStatus](routing-rules.md#trinostatus) for more details on
332+ what each Trino status means.
