Maintenance Mode - munkireport/munkireport-php GitHub Wiki

If you need to do some work on the MunkiReport application, e.g. do some database migrations, it is often advised to put the application into Maintenance Mode. When in this mode, MunkiReport does not accept client requests anymore and most web views will show that the application is not available.

Down

To put MunkiReport into maintenance mode, simply create a file called down into the storage/framework directory. On the command line:

touch /path/to/munkireport/storage/framework/down

Up

After maintenance is done, remove the file and MunkiReport will operate as normal again. On the command line:

rm /path/to/munkireport/storage/framework/down

In the future you will be able to do this with a command line tool.
