"Read-Only" global switch?

I’m about to (finally) migrate our 2.0.11 installation to 3.6.5 and
would like to have the 2.0.11 installation stay up for a few months or
so in a read-only capacity.

Is there (or was there as early as 2.0.11) an easy way to make RT be
read-only in a global sense? I mean, I can run through all the
group/user permissions and turn off anything that constitutes an update.
But if there’s an easy way to make it read-only on a system-wide level,
that’d be preferable.

Thanks…

I’ve done the same on rt 3.4.4 with granting rt_user mysql user only SELECT
right for rt3 db for all tables except sessions.

Thanks, that was what we ended up doing. (Although this was for RT
2.0.11, which didn’t have a sessions table…so the whole database is
read-only.)
