A possible solution:
1) Make sure your Application.cfc file implements the onError eventhandler.
2) Include code in the onError handler to check whether datasources are available. For example, to check whether a datasource, myDSN, is available, you could do something like
<cffunction name="onError">
<cfargument name="Exception" required=true >
<cfargument name = "EventName" type="String" required=true >
<!--- Login into Coldfusion Administrator. --->
<cfset createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("my_CFAdmin_password")>
<!--- Instantiate the data source object. --->
<cfset var datasourceObject = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource")>
<!--- Get a structure containing all the data sources --->
<cfset var datasources = datasourceObject.getDatasources()>
<cfif structCount(datasources) eq 0 or not structKeyExists(datasources, 'myDSN')>
Sorry, the data source in unavailable.
</cfif>
</cffunction>
