JDK Software

All Oracle Solaris operating systems previously identified in this table

The following:

• Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 1.8.0 Update 191-351

• Java 11 Update 17

• OpenJDK 8 Update 191-351

• OpenJDK 11 Update 17

• Any other OpenJDK distribution that is TCK compliance

It is recommended that you upgrade JDK to the latest update according to the vendor's security suggestions.

We recommend the following for JDK 8:

• Use 64-bit JVM

  If you use JDK 8 for PPM Server platforms, the server configuration parameter SERVER_MAX_PERM_SIZE stops working, and perm size would be included in heap size which is controlled by the parameter SERVER_MAX_HEAP_SIZE.

• Update the RSA keys size to be greater than 1024 bits if you use X.509 certificates with RSA keys.

The following:

• Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 1.8.0 Update 191-351.

• Java 11 Update 17

• OpenJDK 8 Update 191-351.

• OpenJDK 11 Update 17.

One of the following:

• Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) (default)
• Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)

To enable support for IPv6, add the ENABLE_IPV6 parameter to the server.conf file and set it to true. For more information, see the Installation and Administration Guide.
