Also note that if you have any deployments set to Ignore Maintenance Windows, 
adding Trevor’s suggestion below will not help. You will still need to stop 
CCMexec, etc.

You could setup a client policy to disable what you need? But I know there are 
some limitations there as well.

Sure, just create an All Deployments Maintenance Window that is 40 years in the 
future, and apply it to those machines. If you’re especially worried about 
these systems, then you could always consider disabling the ccmexec service, or 
removing the ConfigMgr client altogether, but then you’d lose other ConfigMgr 
features like Compliance Settings rules, Inventory reports, and so on. It all 
depends on how critical these systems are during that period.

Crazy question but I need to lock down a specific set of machines for a 30 day 
window.  Is it possible to prevent deployments entirely?  Anyone have a 
suggestion?

Appreciate the help

Thanks
