"if non of the servers in the default pool are available what does the F5 do with the request?" does it use an alternate pool?

This depends on the default pool's behavior. The "Action on service down" behavior dictates the action, and can vary from allowing established conections through to rejecting or dropping the packets. The only instance where an alternate pool would be selected would be with an iRule, or there are options within HTTP profiles for fallback IPs.
