If you simply want to stop the Portal site, you can do it from web
server as well. Goto IIS and stop the site from there.

From: John Timney (MVP) on
Services stops things like the timer jobs - stopping the site from being
accessed is simply a case of stopping the web application or site in IIS or
the correct approach is to quiesce the farm from central admin to stop it
taking new requests and allow current requests to complete.

Thanks for the reply guys..

But i'm looking for other solution besides stopping the IIS web site.
any ideas?

From: John Timney (MVP) on
Well - turn off SQL server. You could always try the app_offline.htm
approach or redirecting request at your root web - or blocking all IPs at
IIS level.
