Important Information

Take notice of the following information regarding the UMS Web App.

Login

• The login data of the database user are not accepted for the UMS Web App. For how to log in to the UMS Web App, see How to Log In to the IGEL UMS Web App.

Permissions

• The UMS Web App and the UMS Console share the same permissions. For detailed information on access rights in the IGEL UMS, see Create Administrator Accounts.
• There are some permissions only applicable to the UMS Web App – "Delete Log Messages" and "Device Bulk Action". They can be set in the UMS Console under System > Administrator accounts > New / Edit > General - WebApp.
• Read permissions to a directory enable access to devices in this directory; permissions only to devices are not sufficient.

Synchronization between the UMS Console and the UMS Web App

• Changes made in the UMS Console are immediately available in the UMS Web App, and vice versa.
• Changes made in the UMS Console are searchable not immediately, but after the next reindexing, which is executed every hour.
• Changes to profile settings made in the UMS Console as well as settings for the newly created profiles are displayed in the UMS Web App under Configuration > [Profile name] > Activated Settings not immediately, but after the next reindexing: this reindexing is executed with a one-day interval.

Logging

• Currently, only logs for actions performed in the UMS Web App are displayed. 
• Log files for the UMS Web App can also be found in /rmguiserver/logs/wums*

Shadowing (VNC)

• Shadowing over ICG is only possible with IGEL Cloud Gateway version 2.02 or higher.
• For secure shadowing, newly registered devices need to boot several times until the certificate for the SSL tunnel is transferred to the UMS.

Certificate

• By default, browsers do not accept the self-signed certificate used by the UMS Server and display a security warning. For how to solve the problem, see UMS Web App: The Browser Displays a Security Warning (Certificate Error). 

Bulk Actions

• The simultaneous selection of several devices or directories is currently not possible. If you want to execute bulk commands, you can do it now only by selecting an individual directory.

Supported Resolution

• The minimal supported resolution is 768 px.

Installation

• In case of using the UMS Web App in a HA environment, the UMS Web App does not necessarily have to be installed on every UMS Server. The UMS Console and the UMS Web App can be installed on different servers.
• If the UMS Web App starts with a 404 system error right after the installation of the UMS, see UMS Web App: "404 - System Error" Message.

RAM and Disk Space Requirements

• The increase of the RAM and disk space is required due to the implemented Elasticsearch engine. For the minimum requirements, see Installation Requirements for the IGEL UMS.
