This is not what the "maintainance mode" is. Normally this mode is activated by a checkbox that forces FE to show some static HTML unconditionally. There is no database access from FE, no TSFE instantiation, etc. Just plain static HTML page shown in FE at the earliest possible moment of FE initialization.
