Our easy step-by-step script guides you through installation NICE DCV on RedHat/CentOS 7.x and 8.x. The script will first update the OS, install the nVidia driver and then install and configure NICE DCV. Including update of the OS it takes around 15-30 minutes to get NICE DCV up and running.
Please note:
- The NICE DCV Server is supported in addition on SLES and Ubuntu in case preferred
Here is a part of the script:
