Installing Sametime on Docker or Podman
Installing Sametime involves starting the install procedure and specifying configuration information for the server, such as the credentials, the ports, MongoDB, and LDAP that the server uses.

About this task
The installation process detects if you are installing Sametime on Docker or Podman and prompts for the appropriate information.
Docker commands are used throughout the install process. All commands require running as a root user. If not running as root user, you must preface all commands with sudo. If you are installing on Podman, the commands are the same but instead of being preceded with Docker, the command is preceded with Podman.
