Client fails to reconnect to kafka once the kafka broker restarts or down and comes back up

[manojnair727]

We are using rust rdkafka library as client to produce messages in kafka. version (0.31). Issue we face is whenever kafka broker gets restarted or there is some downtime for brokers and comes back up, producer client is not able to re-initiate the connection and produce message. Instead it gives Message production error (FATAL). we end up restarting our pods to reinitialize the connection to the brokers to get it working. Can you please help us out here.
