In my attempts to keep 100% uptime on my application I've implemented automatic restarting of worker processes when one dies (cluster module), but one of the problems I am having is that any connections that are currently open on that process are just left hanging until it gets a ECONNRESET. I'm using a restify server.
Ideally I'd like to just return a 500 response to the single request that has a problem and continue with everything else, but from what I understand it is necessary to restart the process to avoid any unexpected behaviour. I've had a look at domains (both server and request level), and the trycatch module both with varying results, but nothing with which I can consistently return a response to the remaining open connections. So my question is, does anybody have any examples of robust exception handling around servers with multiple connections open? -- This e-mail, and any attachments, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
