## Using the Maintenance Mode for your Hardware Nodes

If you need to take a certain hardware node offline for maintenance or upgrade you can bring a Hardware Node into a special maintenance mode that temporarily disables management of Containers or Plesk domains hosted on this Hardware node from the Control Panel.

To bring a node into the maintenance mode, go to the Service Director - Plesk Manager - Nodes or Virtuozzo Manager - Nodes. Select a Hardware Node and edit its general settings.

Note that you can compose a Mass Mailer for customers on that specific Hardware Node.
