LOCAL FIX:
None
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
Ship Java 8 SR5 FP25 for WebSphere Application Server traditional bundled Java 8
USERS AFFECTED:
This combination of WebSphere Application Server and Java is available with fix pack 855.11 and later.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Ship Java 8 SR5 FP25 for WebSphere Application Server traditional bundled Java 8
RECOMMENDATION:
Apply this i-fix to your SDK to upgrade or install bundled Java 8 to Java 8 SR5 FP25.
This i-fix includes two possible upgrade scenarios:
a) If applied to WebSphere 8.5.5.11 or later where bundled Java 8 is installed, it will upgrade your bundled Java 8 to SR5 FP25.
b) If applied to WebSphere 8.5.5.11 or later where the original Java 6 is installed, it will remove Java 6 and replace it with bundled Java 8 SR5 FP25. All profiles and WebSphere infrastructure will be upgraded to use bundled Java 8.
Linux PPC64 LE does not support bundled Java 8 at this time, since the existing bundled Java on that platform is Java 7.1, and it is not going out of service yet. Please continue to use the Java 8 extension offering for your Java 8 needs on this platform.
NOTE:
This i-fix will back up, and then replace the WAS_HOME/java1.8_xx/jre/lib/security/java.security file. This file contains a security fix that is critical to keeping your environment secure. The back up file will be placed at WAS_HOME/java1.8_xx/jre/lib/security/java.security.bak. If you have previously updated this file, you will need to merge your changes into the new copy.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
Applying this apar will upgrade or install bundled Java 8 to Java 8 SR5 FP25 (Oracle 1.8.0_u191 ).
