* _(deprecated)_ <s>`keepalive`: If `value` equals 1, the keepalive-time is set to [wait_timeout](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_wait_timeout)-60, which pings the Server 60 seconds before the MySQL server would close the connection to avoid timeout. If the value is greater than 1, the server gets pinged every `value` seconds without a command. System variables are executed **before**, so it may be possible to change the *wait_timeout* value.</s> **With Go 1.0.3 this is not necessary anymore. Now closed connections can be automatically detected and handled.**
