Hi, I've been doing a bit of database migration today (between mysql versions more than 2 major releases apart - so I couldn't just setup a replication). I've written some instructions about how to make a repository respond with a 503 (Service unavailable) status, and show a human-friendly message at the same time: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Display_a_custom_response_during_downtime If anyone wants to review it / comment on it, please do. It seems to work OK on 3.3.10 - and I can't see why it wouldn't work OK on other versions. The main question I have is how Apache versions might change the code needed to allow a certain IP through. Any thoughts on this welcome! Cheers, John
