Holding page informing the users that an upgrade is occurring

I am using octopus 2.6, I am deploying an application that has an number of services and front end web sites. I would like to put up a holding page informing the users that an upgrade is occurring at the beginning and remove the holding page at the end

I would also like to allow a selected number of users access to the sites before the end of the process to allow them to test the application

What’s the best way to do this?

Is there a better way to do it in octopus 3?

Hi Dino,

Thanks for reaching out. There’s no built-in way to do this with Octopus unfortunately. But if you already know how to do this process from IIS manually, then its absolutely possible to script it using Powershell and then have Octopus execute those scripts for you during the deployment.

Best regards,
