Gentle Reader,

Is there a way to make Koha temporarily unavailable so that I can do
maintenance and be sure that no-one will be logged in?

Is that what the koha-disable and koha-enable commands do?

Thanks!

Chris Brown

Somehow it seems I managed to get old. I really have no idea how that happened.

Fred,

Many thanks for your reply. I am actually trying to disable login to the
staff interface not the OPAC. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Currently I address this problem by temporarily blocking port 8000 (our
staff interface) in the firewall on our server, but this is a slightly
tedious operation and I was looking for an easier way.

Best Regards,

Chris Brown

This should work:

$ sudo koha-disable instance
