What Java (JVM/JRE) versions are supported for use with RootCause?
• On AIX IBM JVM version 1.3.0 and newer are supported. • On Linux RootCause has been tested with Sun JVMs 1.4.0 through 5.0 and IBM’s 1.4 JVM. Linux RootCause does not work with gcj. • On Solaris RootCause works with Sun JVMs version 1.2.2 through 5.0. • On Windows RootCause works with Sun JVMs version 1.2.2 through 5 and IBM JVMS 1.3.0 and newer. We have provided support for older versions of Java for specific customers: please contact us if you have a specific need. Some of our probes, most notably java_memstat make use of the JVMPI debugging interface, which has turned out to be unreliable in earlier versions, and which has been eliminated entirely in Java 1.6. See the Memstat documentation for a detailed description.
