Result

The following directories are created:

For macOS on Intel/AMD64:

/usr/local/var/opt/omnissa/dux/
/usr/local/var/opt/omnissa/dux/images
/usr/local/var/opt/omnissa/dux/logs
/usr/local/var/opt/omnissa/dux/scripts
/usr/local/var/opt/omnissa/dux/certs

For macOS on Apple Silicon/ARM64:

/opt/homebrew/var/opt/omnissa/dux
/opt/homebrew/var/opt/omnissa/dux/images
/opt/homebrew/var/opt/omnissa/dux/logs
/opt/homebrew/var/opt/omnissa/dux/scripts
/opt/homebrew/var/opt/omnissa/dux/certs

• The default path where dux looks for container images is the images directory based on the platform.

• The logs of execution of dux (dux.log, tunnel snap, vpnserver logs) are stored under the directory logs based on the platform.

• The scripts used by dux are created under the scripts directory (for Tunnel, SEG and CG).

• The default path where dux looks for certificates is the certs directory.
