Reconnection after intermediate loss of connection to SQLServer?

Hi, from v7.9 through v7.11 (ce) we do experience problems reconnecting to sqlserver after a intermediate loss of connection. The only solution seems to be restarting Tomcat.

Problem occurs regardless of driver (it seems) including mssql-jdbc-7.2.2.jre11.jar, and on several installations (so should not be a instance problem).

To reproduce:

Run camunda towards a sqlserver database.
Stop sqlserver instance and trigger any action to cause loss of connection
Start sqlserver instance and try to log in

Is there a way of avoiding this except monitoring and restarting Tomcat?
