How to handle disconnect on connection pools - Mailing list psycopg

I have an application with many threads using a PersistentConnectionPool.

It works great, until someone restarts the database, disconnecting all connections in the pool.

So, what can I do to recover the connections when the server restart?

I was thinking about catching psycopg2.OperationalError in a try/except statement, executing a pool.putconn(conn, close=True) to close the problematic connection, then trying to execute the SQL query again. Though, I'm not sure if the PersistentConnectionPool class would create a new connection afterwards, or if this is the right way to do it...

Thanks,
