Univention Bugzilla – Bug 36460
System setup should warn if RAM is insufficient.
Last modified: 2019-11-05 13:45:53 CET
Feedback from a beta tester of UCS 4.0 RC3 indicates that * 384MB RAM are insufficient for using UMC. The system setup should issue some kind of warning about this.
Happened again, I've installed UCS with a mailserver and I had only 512 MB. The installation was not successful.

I think a dedicated popup is the best solution. It should explicitly state that setup may fail of the user chooses to continue. Bonus: It would be great if we add a "shutdown" button here, to give the user the possibility to exit system setup in a controlled way.
I am using 512MB as default value as our quick start guide suggests this: http://docs.univention.de/quickstart-en-4.0.html It is configurable via the UCR variable 'system/setup/boot/minimal_memory' which can be set e.g. in appliance scenarios to the value of MinPhysicalRAM from the ini file. Even if the value is lower than that 512MB is used as the absolute minimum. Should I raise the value from 512 to a higher value as the installation will fail with a mailserver? IMHO we should touch the release notes for that value. (In reply to Erik Damrose from comment #4) > I think a dedicated popup is the best solution.

The implementation of such a button wouldn't be hard (but ACL settings may be).
Created attachment 6771 [details] Screenshot better?
The message is now displayed when entering the summary page. Fix: svn r59221, r59230 YAML: 2015-03-09-univention-system-setup.yaml
Created attachment 6776 [details] Warning icon Stylwise, it would be good not to use (obsolete) icons from the oxygen icon set. I attach an alternative in a correct style fitting also the colour scheme.
Message is displayed: OK text: "... kaputten oder aufgehängten System führen..." >> maybe better: ".. kaputten oder nicht reagierenden System..." Yaml: line 12 ...too few

(In reply to Drees Dormann from comment #9) > Message is displayed: OK > > text: "... kaputten oder aufgehängten System führen..." > >> maybe better: ".. kaputten oder nicht reagierenden System..." "kaputt" seems to be too much colloquial style, IMHO. I'd suggest "... kann zu nicht funktionsfähigen oder nicht mehr reagierenden Sytemen...".
Text changes in svn r59346. Package currently builds.
