IJ45583: SOME CODE FOR IBM JAVA 8 COMPILED WITH ARCH(10) ON Z/OS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: Unhandled exception
  Type=Illegal instruction
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  Some code for IBM Java 8 is compiled with ARCH(10), which
  targets 2827-xxx (IBM zEnterprise EC12 (zEC12)) and 2828-xxx
  (IBM zEnterprise BC12 (zBC12)) models. This may result in an
  illegal instruction fault when running on earlier models:
  2097-xxx (IBM System z10® Enterprise Class)
  2098-xxx (IBM System z10 Business Class)
  2817-xxx (IBM zEnterprise® 196 (z196))
  2818-xxx (IBM zEnterprise 114 (z114))
  Additional code is compiled with ARCH(7), which targets z9,
  however z9 is not supported since z10 is the minimum supported
  level.
  

Local fix
