Description

it would be nice to have a good looking warning when we cannot connect via gRPC. Maybe we could do that check whenever a new members is added and issue an error?

Research direction

Trace the request path that hangs when UDP is reachable but gRPC is unavailable, then inspect the handling of newly added members. Determine where gRPC connectivity can be checked and how warnings or errors are surfaced. Done means the failure is reported clearly instead of leaving the request hanging indefinitely.
