Software Management and Network Installation

UCS integrates extensive functions for software distribution within UCS domains. This includes the automatic, profile-based installation of UCS systems, simple, system-wide updates of the UCS installations and policy-based software distribution.

All the settings and policies can be made/configured via the Univention Management Console or the command line-based interface of the management system and are available system-wide immediately.

For example, policies can be used to define the use of repository servers for software installation within a network and computer configurations can be standardised by means of profile-based installations via PXE boot.
