In Zope version >= 2.13.19 the storage is explicitly closed on shutdown....

... This caused an attribute error on reload, since the _rpc_mgr was None. Test for is_connected before closing connection and cache.

The error happening on every reload for Zope>= 2.13.19, plone versions 4.2 and above:

Reload was still working - this bug just made a lot of noise.
