Operating System
VIVO is largely agnostic to the OS that it is running on - as a Java application, it is dependent on having a Java Virtual Machine and a Tomcat servlet container. It should be possible to install and run VIVO on any OS where you are able to provide all of the other software requirements.
However, most sites will run their installations on a Linux server, and you may find that it is easier to follow the installation instructions on a Linux / UNIX variant. Notably, if you are running Windows, you may need to stop running processes (e.g. Tomcat) in order to complete some of the instructions, due to file locking semantics on Windows.
