Description Christian Völker univentionstaff 2019-04-26 12:35:18 CEST
If the configured AD-DC goes down for whatever reason, UCS cannot authenticate users any more. This leads to the app (ie Nextcloud, Kopano) being unuseable during downtime of the AD-DC.

As AD having a multiple-server concept other AD-DCs offer the functionality for clients so there is no outage- except the UCS server and the app installed there.

We should be able to configure at least a secondary DC in case of failure so the app will still be useable.
