I think a static page page explaining to users that the server is being upgraded would be best.
Exactly. That's what I meant by a 502. Like most HTTP responses, you can associate a template with it and it's even recommended when you have a lot of people using your service and you want to explain why it's not accessible right now.
Beehaw.org did this, their nginx seems configured to return a nice error message.
