I've tried transferring SSL issued by GoDaddy to Linux based server. The website was originally hosted in Windows. After the installation is completed, I got a message like this in cPanel:
Certificate ID: ***********
Domains: xxxxsomethingxxxxx.com
Issuer: GoDaddy.com, Inc.
Key Size: 2,048 bits
Expiration: Feb 10, 2015 10:05:10 PM
Does that look fine? Does the Issuer still remain as GoDaddy? Now how do I test to see if this is in fact working?
After installing the SSL in the Linux server, do I now need to do something in GoDaddy or in the previous Windows server to indicate that the SSL has now been transferred to the new server?

SSL certificates do not need to be transfered in the same way that domain names do. You can use the same certificate on multiple machines at the same time.
The only reason to remove the certificate from your old Windows server would be to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands.
You can test that your setup is working by visiting your site. If your domain name hasn't been switched to point to your new host yet, you can check it beforehand by modifying your local DNS hosts file.
