Install Operator Console (OC) on Linux

Issue/Introduction

We are setting up a new environment for DX UIM. I have configured primary and secondary hubs as well as the IM console. Now I need to setup the OC. 

Can we use a Linux server as the OC server? The installation notes I found only mentions Windows - which we do not use in our other UIM environments. 

Also, do we run the OC installer from the primary hub or the OC server?

Environment

DX UIM 20.4.* / 23.4.*

Cause

Guidance

Resolution

Whether the DX UIM server is running on Windows or Linux, the Operator Console (OC) can be installed on Linux. 

See: Component Support Matrix - DX UIM Compatibility Matrix

See: Official Documentation: Install Operator Console

The OC can be installed in GUI Mode or Console Mode
