Retry in RestTemplate not working against ResourceAccessException

My retry handler not working against ResourceAccessException. This only works against IOException and its sub-type. I even tried adding interceptor but no luck. Any idea how to add retry for ResourceAccessException???

@Bean
public ClientHttpRequestFactory clientFactory() {
    HttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.custom()            
        .setRetryHandler((exception, executionCount, context) -> {
            if (executionCount > 3) {
                log.warn("Maximum retries {} reached", 3);
                return false;
            }
            if (<some condition for retry>) {
                log.warn("Retry {}", executionCount);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        })
        .build();

    return new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory(httpClient);
}
@Bean
public RestTemplate customRestTemplate(@Qualifier("clientFactory") ClientHttpRequestFactory clientFactory){ 
    return new RestTemplate(clientFactory);
}
