The documentation for "Overwrite existing widget" now describes how the internal UDM name can be extracted.  AFAICS existing groups cannot be overwritten.

I also removed some outdated/incorrect documentation from the documentation

This is now mentioned in the documentation for "Overwrite existing tab".

I've uncommented this documentation block for now. In my tests the specification of the internal UDM name was required and the position had no effect.

AFAICS this isn't possible.

  Please have a look at the attached patch:
  For me the "Reiter" is the thing on top of the "Karteikarte".


FYI: My test code to create and delete some test EAs:
declare -i index=0 tabs=2 groups=2 vals=3
for tab in $(seq $tabs)
do
  for group in $(seq $groups)
  do
    for val in $(seq $vals)
    do
      udm settings/extended_attribute create \
        --position "cn=custom attributes,cn=univention,$(ucr get ldap/base)" \
        --set objectClass=univentionFreeAttributes \
        --set groupPosition=$group \
        --set module=users/user \
        --set shortDescription=Short$tab$group$val \
        --set groupName=MyGroup$group \
        --set name=foo$tab$group$val \
        --set longDescription=Long$tab$group$val \
        --set tabName=MyTab$tab \
        --set syntax=string \
        --set mayChange=1 \
        --set ldapMapping=univentionFreeAttribute$index \
        --set tabPosition=$tab
       index+=1
    done

This didn't work:
udm settings/extended_attribute create \
  --position cn=custom\ attributes\,cn=univention\,"$(ucr get ldap/base)" \
  --set objectClass=inetOrgPerson \
  --set module=users/user \
  --set overwritePosition=mobileTelephoneNumber \
  --set translationTabName=de_DE:\ Kontakt \
  --set shortDescription=Mobile\ phone\ number\(s\) \
  --set groupName=Business \
  --set version=2 \
  --set CLIName=mobileTelephoneNumber \
  --set translationGroupName=$'de_DE: Gesch\303\244ftlich' \
  --set translationShortDescription=de_DE:\ Telefonnummer\(n\)\ Mobil \
  --set tabName=Contact \
  --set syntax=phone \
  --set name=mobileTelephoneNumber \
  --set mayChange=1 \
  --set multivalue=1 \
  --set ldapMapping=mobile \
  --set options=person \
  --set tabPosition=99

Created attachment 5492 [details]
Proposed patch

Use "wdiff -d < 30925_udm-ea-doc.diff" to see a work-diff instead of the line-diff.
