Serve maintenance page if file exists
We are hoping to let our developers control turning on maintenance pages for their sites. We were hoping that we could check for the existence of a file in (or outside) the application to determine whether or not to serve the maintenance page (served by the BIGIP).
We are hoping we can use an iRule to check for the existence of this file and if it exists, return the maintenance page and if it does not exist, continue processing.
I know that iControl can be leveraged to enable/disable iRules, but we were hoping for something that fits the above scenario. Has anyone done this?
Thanks!
