James,
Thank you for your thoughtful reply.

I have tried setting the --persist-remote-ip option in the client
config, but this seems to break the server search, so that after a
timeout on the first server, the next try is again on the first server,
rather than progressing to the second server (ie if the first server is
not available, a connection cannot be made.)
Q2.1 Is this possibly a bug?
No, the behaviour makes sense -- if you use --persist-remote-ip you are
telling OpenVPN to reuse its current remote IP on restart.
Except in this case, there is no current remote ip, because the client
hasn't managed to connect yet.
Thank you again,
Cheers!
Nik
