OpenLink will start the blackout around 08:00 EST (15:00 UTC) on 18 January for a period of no longer than 12 hours. To use this page on your own virtuoso instance, the virtuoso.ini file should contain the following line: [HTTPServer] MaintenancePage = atomic.html This page can than be moved temporary over virtuoso/vsp/atomic.html which will allow the dba to use the http_lock('dba password') function to lock the whole site and to return a HTTP 503 status and the text of this page for every request send during this period. At the end of the black-out, the http_unlock('dba password') can be used to resume normal operations, and the previous content of the virtuoso/vsp/atomic.html can be restored.
