System Notifications
In the meantime we now have a newer request called Introduction of Administrative Notifications that tackles the same problem. Therefore, I set this page to status "redundant".
1 Description
Currently, it is not that easy to inform all users of an installation about maintenance activities and temporary server shutdowns. In ILIAS 2 there was a simple maintenance setting that informed about such activities and upcoming interuptions of services.
For ILIAS 4.1 would like to suggest a feature for easy system notification. It would only be available for system administrators (in Administration) and offer several channels for communicating information about maintenance activities:
- Sending mails to all users (internal mail box as well as e-mail address)
- Adding a message to the login screen
- Adding a message bar (below the main menu) for a short message and a (> more) link
The structure of such a notification would be the following for all three channels:
Mail message | Login message | Message bar | |
Title | = subject of mail | = headline of message | = message text in bar |
Text | = body of mail | = paragraph(s) below headline | behind [more] link and shown under message bare when page is reloaded |
2 Status
- Scheduled for Release: Not scheduled yet
- Funding: Required
- Development: Feature is to be developed by
3 Additional Information

- We could also discuss if the current setting "System Messages" is still necessary for mails when this new feature is implemented.
Jour Fixe, 30 Nov '09: We would highly appreciate some feedback from other system administrators!
