Okay, let me give this a try.

I think this redirection to a custom maintenance page should happen outside the application server, for exactly the reasons you noted above. I guess it could be done by setting up some Apache configurations[1] outside the JBoss AS which will redirect the request to a different URL so that the original request never reaches the JBoss server. 

[1] I have no clue how this can be done, since i have not looked into such configurations. I might be wrong too, about this being possible with some "Apache configuration"
