How to Configure OSS Java in System Path for Gxxx and VSP E Series SVPs

Objective

• This article will show how to configure OSS OpenJDK Java for SVPs and MPCs as the default Java

Environment

• OSS Java 
• Gxxx OSS Java
• OpenJDK Java SVPs
• SVPs Default Java
• Windows 10
• Windows 7
• VSP Gx00 and VSP Fx00
  • Virtual Storage Platform Gx00 (VSP Gx00): VSP G200, VSP G400, VSP G600, VSP G800
  • Virtual Storage Platform Fx00 (VSP Fx00): VSP F400, VSP F600, VSP F800
• VSP G130 G/F350 G/F370 G/F700 G/F900
  • VSP G130, G350, G370, G700, G900
  • VSP F350, F370, F700, F900
• VSP E Series
  • Virtual Storage Platform E590 (VSP E590)
  • Virtual Storage Platform E790 (VSP E790)
  • Virtual Storage Platform E990 (VSP E990)

Procedure

1. Open Microsoft Add/Remove Programs and verify that Oracle Java is not installed

2. Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run the following command:
   • java --version
     
   • We expect to see ERROR:  'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
3. Set the OpenJDK Java located in C:\Mapp\OSS\openjdk11\bin using the following command:
   • setx /m PATH "%PATH%;C:\Mapp\OSS\openjdk11\bin"
     
4. Reboot the SVP
   
5. Once the reboot is completed, log back into the SVP and open command prompt. Test the Java --Version command. It should display the OSS OpenJDK Java version
