Create or delete the file maintenance_mode in /store/toolbox/uploads
If you have not yet set up a corresponding LDAP group for supporters/admins of the requisis_toolbox, we strongly recommend that you do so. This group must be specified in the parameters.yml file in the /store/toolbox/config subfolder in the auth.ldap.supporter.dn parameter.
An active maintenance mode can be started and canceled by the IT administration or users in the corresponding LDAP group, even if no corresponding LDAP user group has been set up. Your normal users will then see this message after logging in:
As long as maintenance mode is active, normal users cannot start any new jobs. This gives the administration the opportunity to perform backups and updates.
Activate maintenance mode:
To do this, the file maintenance_mode must be created in the subfolder /store/toolbox/uploads in the file system. One of the following commands can be used for this:
- Unix command
touch maintenance_mode
- Windows CMD
echo.> maintenance_mode
- Powershell:
New-Item "maintenance_mode" -ItemType File
Deactivate maintenance mode:
To do this, the maintenance_mode file must be deleted in the /store/toolbox/uploads subfolder in the file system.
