Maintenance notification during confluence shutdown

[Krithica G (EXTERNAL)]

Hi,

We are going to perform admin activities in confluence so we will be shutting down confluence. At that time if any user is launching confluence url, it should show a notice like "Maintenance is going on " . How to achieve this?

Hi @Krithica G (EXTERNAL)  and welcome,

if you are on a server instance with a single node, the application will be down so you can't reach this goal at application side. If you have a reverse proxy behind the application you could setup a redirect to your own maintenace page.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Thank you. How to set up the maintenance page with reverse proxy ?

if you have a NGINX reverse proxy please take a look here https://blog.devcloud.hosting/configuring-nginx-for-quickly-switching-to-maintenance-mode-e4136cf497f3
