Univention Bugzilla – Bug 35364
Document fallback UCR variables for thin clients with overlayfs
Last modified: 2023-06-28 10:32:52 CEST
In UCR we have two different kinds of variables: - Locally set variables (/etc/univention/base.conf) - variables set from a policy (/etc/univention/base-ldap.conf) On UCC desktop systems or on UCS systems both are stored on persistent storage, i.e. if a system is booted and the retrieval of the LDAP policy isn't possible it can fall back to the values retrieved by the last run. On UCC thin clients we use an overlayfs. As such the values written to base-ldap.conf are not available on the next reboot. We should document how to set these "fallback variables": - For the initial setting see Bug 35363 - The fallback variables to be kept across updates need to be registered in ucc/persistent/ucr. (Such fallback variables are only relevant for UCC environments where the UCC LDAP server is different from the PXE/DHCP environment)
