Open Enterprise Server (OES) 2023 is built on SLES 15 SP4 and ships with eDirectory 9.2.7. Various consoles and command-line tools are used to manage OES services. Unified Management Console (UMC) is installed and configured through YaST.
UMC is a highly responsive, simple, and secure web-based management console for managing small and large OES deployments. UMC provides customized access to network administration utilities and content from virtually anywhere using the Internet and a web browser similar to iManager. UMC provides single point of administration for OES resources.
Because UMC is a Web-based tool, it enjoys several advantages over client-based administrative tools:
Changes to UMC look, feel, and functionality are immediately available to all administrative users.
No need to open additional administrative ports for remote access. UMC leverages standard HTTPS ports (443).
Not necessary to download and maintain an administrative client.
