Would it be possible to add a Server Currently Under Maintenance Screen.

Feature Suggestions

Hi Folks
I share my libraries with my 3 kids and an adult friend. All 4 do not live with me.
At times, I like to perform basic database maintenance ie… removing or adding certain movies, songs or tv show or whatever. When this occurs, I like to turn the server OFF. When doing so, I usually get a phone call from the above mentioned PLEX friends who are getting the “Cannot Connect to Server” or that the server is unavailable. Right away they start re-configuring their PC’s or TV boxes thinking it’s their end.

It would be nice if I could broadcast a simple message screen stating “PLEX server currently under maintenance, please try later”

Any suggestions?

Wondering why you turn the server off??
I manage all my media and database optimizations… etc. while the server is up.

I have never had a cause to shut down the server doing anything with my server.

Just curious
