This endpoint also supports the `force=yes` parameter that will cause all

connections to the server to be closed if `state=maintenance` is also set. By
 |

default setting a server into maintenance mode will cause connections to be

closed only after the next request is sent.

The following example forcefully closes all connections to server _db-server-1_
 | 
			
		||||
and sets it into maintenance mode:

		||||

```

# MariaDB MaxScale 2.3.6 Release Notes
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Release 2.3.6 is a GA release.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
This document describes the changes in release 2.3.6, when compared to the
 | 
			
		||||
previous release in the same series.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For any problems you encounter, please consider submitting a bug
 | 
			
		||||
report on [our Jira](https://jira.mariadb.org/projects/MXS).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## New Features
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* [MXS-2417](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MXS-2417) MaxScale main config should take precedence over runtime config on restart
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### REST API & MaxCtrl: Hard maintenance mode
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The new `--force` option for the `set server` command in MaxCtrl allows all
 | 
			
		||||
connections to the server in question to be closed when it is set into
 | 
			
		||||
maintenance mode. This causes idle connections to be closed immediately.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For more information, read the
 | 
			
		||||
[REST-API](../REST-API/Resources-Server.md#set-server-state) documentation for
 | 
			
		||||
the `set` endpoint.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## Bug fixes
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
* [MXS-2419](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MXS-2419) Hangs on query during multiple transaction replays
 | 
			
		||||
* [MXS-2418](https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MXS-2418) Crash on transaction replay if log_info is on and session starts with no master
