  1. Java Version in OEM agent.

 

By default, EM 13.4 Agent uses java version "1.8.0_231" (On Linux/ Solaris / Windows).

Please note that before upgrading the JDK on Agents, Ensure that OMS's (OEM) JDK has been Updated already.

 

Apply RU 19 ( Patch 34692141 ) or a later version on the Agent Home before upgrading the JDK on agent.

 

 

For Linux

1. Download Patch 35009178 from JDK 8 tab of Supported Java SE Downloads on MOS (Doc ID 1439822.2)

File Name: p35009178_180371_Linux-x86-64.zip

2. Stop Agent

<Agent_Base>/agent_inst/bin/emctl stop agent

3. Go to <AGENT_ORACLE_HOME>/oracle_common/

Example: <Agent_Base>/agent_13.4.0.0.0/oracle_common/

4. Take backup of jdk directory.

$mv jdk jdk_bak

5. Copy p35009178_180371_Linux-x86-64.zip to $AGENT_ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/

6. Unzip p35009178_180371_Linux-x86-64.zip and check the readme.txt for the instructions to install it.

$tar zxvf jdk-8u371-linux-x64.tar.gz

It will create jdk1.8.0_371 directory. Rename it to jdk.

7. Confirm the version of the JDK by checking:

<AGENT_ORACLE_HOME>/oracle_common/jdk/bin/java -version
