I went ahead and both shutdown the old Apache on the old frontend and
started up an Nginx on it with a configuration to load a simple Site
Moved page returning 503.  This can be easily changed.  But it should
at least alert people that they are at the wrong place now.

server {
        root /var/www/site-moved;
        location / {
                return 503;
        }
        location /floating.png {
                # Allow this path.
        }
        error_page 503 @moved;
        location @moved {
                rewrite .* /sitemoved.html break;
        }
}
