But there is one more way though which users can be informed . This article shows how to keep users updated

Unfortunately I can't see the the snapshots you have provided and PDF is not working either. Could you mention on what version on applications your example is based ? I can't seem to find above said navigation path on 11.5.10.2.

This looks good! I have a further question I wonder if you can help me with? Example - If you have taken the full database and app down to do an Upgrade/patchin g etc. Can you recommend any solution to bring the system back up and only allow a select number of testers back into the system? We have used end dating the user account via APIs, however there must be smarter way to do this? Any suggestions?

Thanks

After I created the downtime page, it shows the date format like HH24:MI:SS MM/DD/YYYY.
Is there any way to change the format dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss
