  TeamI have the need to have postgresql db running in multiuser mode and do my needed tasks for few mins.
How to restrict all the application layer , not to get connected with the postgres db ,during my specific time window

1. Create a pg_hba_maintmode.conf with only the relevant hosts in it.2. Copy pg_hba.conf to pg_hba_multi.conf.3. Copy pg_hba_maintmode.conf to pg_hba.conf.4. pg_ctl reload.5. Use pg_stat_activity and pg_cancel_backend() to kill the application connections.6. Do your work.7. Copy pg_hba_multi.conf to pg_hba.conf.8. pg_ctl reload
Or... just shut down the user application.
