Thanks Shreeyansh.  

Can this be handled from the server side may be setting some config parameters and then restarting the master so that existing connections gets dropped and the new ones not able to write?

Hi Debraj Manna,

Yes,You can make  the database read only as well  just by setting the below parameter is equal to true at the session level.But you need reconnect your existing connections.



ALTER DATABASE YOUR_DATABASE_NAME  SET default_transaction_read_only = true;

Hope this helps..

Yes I want to switch the database to read-only mode. The existing connections should also be not able to write.

are you trying to switch the database to a read-only mode for backup purposes or
something different?
