Not sure whether this is applicable here... but encountered similar issue with Tomcat and XAPOOL...
When DB server fails, connection pool has maximum connection initialised (but not working). Thus with restart of DB server, Tomcat need to be restarted to initialize active connections of pool, as this was configured in start-up code.

Trying interrupt()." I deployed my application to the Tomcat 5.5.26. I use hibernate for O/RM, and the connection pool is c3p0, the database is MySql 5.0. Several days ago, the Database Server is down, but there are lots of user accessing the Tomcat. After I restarted the Database Server, the Tomcat can't connect to the Database Server automatically. And I have to restart the Tomcat manually. And only it was restarted, the Tomcat can connect to the Database Server. I checked logs, and found that there are lots of Select Operations in the log file, and there are some error about "deadlocked PoolThread". Does someone meet this problem before, and what's reason? Thanks.
