§Kapitel 1. UCS@school-Update

Dieses Dokument enthält die Changelogs mit den detaillierten Änderungsinformationen zum Update von UCS@school von Version 4.4 v7 nach 4.4 v8. Sofern notwendig, werden wichtige Hinweise zum Update in einem separaten Abschnitt behandelt. Die Changelogs werden nur in Englisch gepflegt. Die Änderungsinformationen für vorherige Versionssprünge finden sich unter https://docs.software-univention.de/.

§1.1. Generelle Hinweise zum Update

Während der Aktualisierung kann es zu Ausfällen von Diensten innerhalb der Domäne kommen. Aus diesem Grund sollte das Update innerhalb eines Wartungsfensters erfolgen. Grundsätzlich wird empfohlen das Update zunächst in einer Testumgebung einzuspielen und zu testen. Die Testumgebung sollte dabei identisch zur Produktivumgebung sein.

§1.2. Updateprozess

Größere Updates für UCS@school werden im Univention Appcenter als eigenständiges App-Update herausgegeben. Kleinere Updates und Fehlerbereinigungen (Errata für UCS@school), die keine Interaktion mit dem Administrator erforderlich machen, werden im Repository der bereits veröffentlichten App-Version von UCS@school herausgegeben. Die Changelog-Dokumente, die Univention mit jeder UCS@school-App-Version herausgibt, werden dann entsprechend um einen neuen Abschnitt erweitert, aus dem ersichtlich wird, zu welchem Zeitpunkt welche Pakete veröffentlicht und welche Fehler dabei behoben wurden.

In version 4.4 v8 we introduced a feature, which allowed the usage of clients with multiple IP addresses. This can lead to long waiting times if computers inside a computer room are not running.

Creating two exams quickly in succession led to the problem that exam-users were not able to access their home directories anymore. This fix ensures that this problem does not occur anymore (Bug 52307).
During the exams, students could change the permissions of their home directories, which opened up the possibility of sharing files with their fellow students. This fix removes this ability for students (Bug 49655).

Please test the consequences of this feature thoroughly with third party apps (Bug 52372).

When creating a new school via the create_ou CLI script, the educational and administrative DC host name lengths were not checked. This fix ensures that they do not exceed a length of 13 characters (Bug 51274).
Invalid characters in school class names are now also replaced when importing through the UMC module (Bug 52524).

When creating a new school via the UMC, the name length of the new school server is automatically checked. The allowed maximum length was raised from 12 to 13 characters (Bug 51274).
It is now possible to create school administrators using the UMC school user wizard. Those users will be dedicated school administrators without the staff or teacher roles.

Source package ucs-school-lib in version 12.2.11A~4.4.0.202102180925:

Internal improvement: an error in an internal function was fixed (Bug 52783).
UCS@school user and group objects are now validated before usage, when loading them from LDAP. When erroneous objects are found in LDAP errors will be logged to the regular log files. Additionally the complete LDAP object is written to /var/log/univention/ucs-school-validation.log which is only readable by the user root. The new UCR-V ucsschool/validation/logging/backupcount configures the amount of copies of that logfile which are kept in log rotation, defaults to 60 (Bug 52309).
