    First you could send the status code by dynamic (ex. php) maintrance
    file (I think this is a bad idea through...) Second you could do
    something like this:<br>
    <br>
    <pre class="de1">try_files&nbsp; <i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>www/maintenance.html $uri&nbsp; $uri<span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i> <span class="re0">@maintrance;

<span class="kw3">location</span> <span class="re0">@maintrance</span><span class="br0"> {</span>
  return 503<span class="sy0">;</span>
