Useful CLI Commands Univention Corporate Server

Useful CLI command line troubleshooting tools

The following is a list of CLI commands used for administering the Univention Corporate Server (UCS)

UCS Show Commands

Command Description
ucr get server/role Show the server role
ucr get domainname Show Domainname
ucr get windows/domain Show WIndows Domain

Samba Show Commands

Command Description
samba-tool drs showrepl To get an overview of the current drs replication status you can use this command at every UCS Samba 4 DC which is joined to the domain.
root@master:~# univention-s4search cn=master msDS-KeyVersionNumber

root@backup:~# univention-s4search cn=master msDS-KeyVersionNumber

For a given user, computer, or built-in account, this attribute specifies the Kerberos version number of the current key for that account.
Therefore it can be used to compare the replication status of systems.

 

The values have to be equal - otherweise the replication seems to be broken. If a system uses another value in comparison to the master, then it has to be rejoined or you first try to replicate just the Server account.

 

Example:

root@master:~# univention-s4search cn=master msDS-KeyVersionNumber
dn: CN=MASTER,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=test,DC=domain
msDS-KeyVersionNumber: 7
root@backup:~# univention-s4search cn=master msDS-KeyVersionNumber
dn: CN=MASTER,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=test,DC=domain
msDS-KeyVersionNumber: 1
