We have a kubernetes cluster with Debezium running as a source task from a Postgresql and writing to kafka. Debezium, postgres and kafka are all running in separate pods. When the postgres pod is deleted and kubernetes re-creates the pod, debezium pod fails to re-connect. Logs from debezium pod:

... 19 moreIs there a way to have debezium re-establish its connection to postgres when it becomes available? Or am I missing some config?
Looks like this is a common issue and has open feature requests in both debezium and kafka
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DBZ-248
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5352
While these are open, it looks like this is expected behaviour
As a workaround I've add this liveness probe to the deployment
livenessProbe:
exec:
command:
- sh
- -ec
- ipaddress=$(ip addr | grep 'state UP' -A2 | tail -n1 | awk '{print $2}' | cut -f1 -d'/'); reply=$(curl -s $ipaddress:8083/connectors/inventory-connector/status | grep -o RUNNING | wc -l); if [ $reply -lt 2 ]; then exit 1; fi;
initialDelaySeconds: 30
periodSeconds: 5First clause gets the container IP address:
ipaddress=$(ip addr | grep 'state UP' -A2 | tail -n1 | awk '{print $2}' | cut -f1 -d'/');Second clause makes the request and counts instances of 'RUNNING' in the response json:
reply=$(curl -s $ipaddress:8083/connectors/inventory-connector/status | grep -o RUNNING | wc -l);Third clause returns exit code 1 if 'RUNNING' appears less than twice
if [ $reply -lt 2 ]; then exit 1; fiIt seems to be working on initial tests - i.e. restarting the postgres DB triggers a restart of the debezium container. I guess a script something like this (although perhaps 'robustified') could be included in the image to facilitate the probe.
