Java (JDK) support

Control-M components are now verified with Open JDK, Oracle Solaris, and Azul JDKs. The following options are now available:

• Use of OpenJDK: 
  • Open JDK 11 is included by default with new installations of Control-M/Agent, Control-M/Server, Control-M Application pack and Control-M MFT for all supported platforms (Control-M Enterprise Manager remains with Open JDK 8).
  • Open JDK 11 replaces the previous version of Java during an upgrade of these components except Control-M/EM, which remains with Open JDK 8. 
    A zipped version of the original Java is available for downgrading purposes.
• Use of a commercial JDK: BMC continues to verify major versions of Oracle and Azul JDKs, and enables the usage of these (JDK 11 for Control-M/Agent, Control-M/Server, Control-M Application pack and Control-M MFT, JDK 8 for Control-M Enterprise Manager), for customers that have third-party commercial support agreements in place.
