Sametime 12.0.2 premium startup at boot

Hello,

I need to install and run Sametime Premium 12.0.2 on a RHEL 9 server.

And I need to use podman without podman-compose (Red Hat support requirement).

What is the good way to install the product (as root, sudoer, simple user) ?

After the installation, how can I start Sametime Premium at boot time ?

Thank you for your help.

HI Luc -

podman-compose (like docker-compose) is required - there is not a way to workaround that requirement.

I install as 'root' - usually makes things simpler - but any user with appropriate permissions to interact with Podman will do the trick - sudo user is just fine.

As far as starting at boot - you should be able to create a simple service that runs the podman-compose command. Since podman starts on boot - it usually restarts whatever was running when it was shut down, so no service may be required.

Create a VM with another os on the RHEL server, thus you can use docker/podman with compose. ;-)
