[pgpool-general: 8932] Offline replica and pgpool do not respond or connect with psql

[Franklin Anderson de Oliveira Souza]

Hello everyone,

I'm using pgpool, a master and two replicas, but when a replica goes
down, pgpool no longer responds. I can't connect with psql and in the
log I have the following:

LOG: failed to connect to PostgreSQL server on "ip_address:5432"

The application becomes inoperative. Is there a way to make pgpool
more resilient in relation to this?
