That's what I did but that forces the site to reschedule the work plan,
which sometimes brings other inconveniences in. I put out "down" and
"Closed" last night for a day, assuming the site will be free in the
morning, which did not happen. Now, we are actually
1. down for nothing for the entire day,
2. didn't able to do the thing I supposed to do today
3. plus I need to log another down time
4. and reschedule my to do list.
Couple of VOs (and their users) are just pain in the neck and almost
certain that they are not gonna get back with anything. So entire thing
ends up with a complete mess, which causes huge inconvenience(s) to the
site.
Cheers,
Santanu
