How To Enable Or Disable Maintenance Mode In Magento 2

In this post, I will guide you on How To Enable Or Disable Maintenance Mode In Magento 2. Use maintenance mode to upgrade or reconfigure your site.

Steps To Enable Or Disable Maintenance Mode In Magento 2

1.  First, you need to connect to your server via SSH as the root user by command:

ssh root@<your-ip-address> -p <your-port-number>

2. Go to Magento 2 root folder.

Enable The Maintenance Mode

Use the Magento 2 CLI command to enable maintenance mode.

php bin/magento maintenance:enable [--ip=<ip address> ... --ip=<ip address>]

--ip=<ip address> is an IP address exempt from maintenance mode (for example, developers doing the maintenance).

For example, to exempt more than one IP address in the same command:

php bin/magento maintenance:enable --ip=127.0.0.1 --ip=127.0.0.2

We enable maintenance mode for all clients except 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.0.2

To enable maintenance mode with no IP address exemptions, run below command:

php bin/magento maintenance:enable

Disable The Maintenance Mode

Use the Magento 2 CLI command to disable maintenance mode.

php bin/magento maintenance:disable [--ip=<ip address> ... --ip=<ip address>]

Similar to enabling the maintenance mode, you can add exempt IP addresses.

To disable maintenance mode with no IP address exemptions, run below command:

php bin/magento maintenance:disable

Show Maintenance Status

To know the current status of the maintenance mode, run below the command:

php bin/magento maintenance:status
