uidNumber range exhausted

UCS - Univention Corporate Server
#1

Hello,

we have the problem that the listener does not create new objects.

After some research, we located the problem in the file “/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/univention/admin/allocators.py” line 195.

There are some hard coded limits:


    return acquireRange(lo, position, type, _type2attr[type], [{'first': 1000, 'last': 55000}, {'first': 65536, 'last': 1000000}], scope=_type2scope[type])

When we list all uid’s of users, we see, that univention suddenly tries to use high uidNumbers:

(We changed the limit in the file to 1100000, so that we can use the UCS installation again.)

root@UCS:~# udm users/user list | grep uidNumber

We have no idea, where we should start searching to solve this problem, so any help is appreciated.
