Proper disconnect/reconnect handling?

Is there any way to see a dicsonnect event? How to handle it in a proper way? I just don’t know how to get things done in app after db goes down. Keep connection? Drop it and try to reconnect? Haven’t seen any recipes here yet. Thanks for any help and advices.

Any news on this? I don’t think the code to close all connections addresses the problem - the question (I think) is how to catch the error that the connection has died and then try to reconnect.

I’m facing the issue that once the database server (MySQL) is down (and I’m getting a “Pool does not exist” error), it does not recover, even if the database comes back up again. I need to manually restart the server to trigger a re-connect attempt. Is there any way to automatically do this?
