From AMI you can get uptime. If the uptime is short likely Asterisk restarted.

The program will then attempt to reconnect to the AMI and will eventually succeed. Is there a way to check whether the disconnection was caused by a network disruption, or an Astersk restart/crash? In other words, is the Asterisk process I contacted now the same as the one I was connected before, or is it a different one? The reason I want to know is that I have a cache of information that is costly to parse (scales linearly with the number of extensions) and I want to know how to realize that the information is now stale.
