Just be aware that jobs that are scheduled to run during that period are still scheduled, and you see them waiting in the Build Queue.
Also, be careful if you have slaves configured “take this slave on-line when in demand, and off-line when idle”. If you have a job that Is tied to a particular slave, then when the job is put in the build queue, the slave will be taken online even if Jenkins is in “prepare for shutdown” state.
