UCS 5.2-6 has been released
With Univention Corporate Server 5.2-6, the FIXME patchlevel release for Univention Corporate Server (UCS) is now available.
UCS 5.2-6 provides several feature improvements and extensions, new properties as well as various improvements and bugfixes. Here is an overview of the most important changes:
- The UDM HTTP REST API now includes a metrics endpoint. You can retrieve basic Nubus metrics, such as the number of users, the software version, and the license status. Use these metrics in standard tools such as Prometheus and Grafana to improve observability.For more information, see Metrics in Nubus Manual 1.x [1].
- Univention Management Console includes a new section with technical details for objects in Univention Directory Manager. You can view and search technical identifiers and the creation and modification timestamps for all objects.
- Groups in Univention Nubus can now have alternative email addresses in addition to a primary email address. You can use them as email aliases for groups, following the same concept as alternative email addresses for users. The Univention mail stack supports this additional attribute and delivers email sent to a group’s alternative email address to all members of the group.
- Samba has been updated to version 4.24.2, including the latest security patches, so it’s equivalent to version 4.24.3.
