Is there a way to configure a retry policy if umbraco fails to connect to the SQL server during boot ? I had an incident where my clients site failed to boot during a maintenance as the SQL server was still down. A restart did the trick, but it would be nice if it got up by itself as soon as the SQL database was back up 🤔

I think that would be a good feature request. Not sure why it's not doing that already.

Yeah it seems obvious that it should, hence i was confused whether it already did

Could be that we don't have required retry services available that early in the boot process though, so maybe it was so complex that it was skipped.

would an improved feature request be that if no sql connection found then try and continue from the caches (nucache, examine etc..)
