Java Virtual Machines DevPartner Java Edition requires one of the following Java Virtual Machines (JVMs). Table 1. Supported Java Virtual Machines These JVMs... HP 1.4 and 5.0 (32-bit) IBM 1.4 (32-bit) IBM 1.5 (32-bit) (Also called IBM 5.0) [See Note 1] Sun 1.4 (32-bit) Sun 5.0 (32-bit) [See Note 2] Sun 6.0 (32-bit) JRockit 1.4.2_05 (32-bit) Run on These Operating Systems HP-UX 11i and 11i v2 With all supported application servers: Only with IBM WebSphere: HP-UX 11i and 11iv2 Only with IBM WebSphere: HP-UX 11iv2, and Windows Vista [See Note 3], and Windows Vista 4 DevPartner Java Edition
1 To use WebSphere with JVMTI, you must have WebSphere release 6.1.09 and JDK 1.5 SR5. 2 Because of an issue in Sun's release of Java 5.0, Memory analysis may not work correctly if class data sharing is enabled. The Win32 release of the Sun J2SE 5.0 enables class data sharing by default and it must be explicitly disabled. To disable class data sharing, pass -Xshare:off as a command line parameter to Java. With DevPartner Java Edition, you can also disable class data sharing by creating a global environment variable named NM_VM_OPTIONS and setting it to -Xshare:off. 3 Support for Windows Vista was introduced in Sun J2SE 5.0 Update 11. Application Servers DevPartner Java Edition can profile applications running on the following application servers. Table 2. Supported Application Servers These Application Servers... Apache Tomcat 5.5 Apache Tomcat 6.0 BEA WebLogic Server 8.1.x BEA WebLogic Server 9.0 through 9.2 [See Note 1] Run on These Operating Systems, and Windows Vista HP-UX 11i and 11i v2, and Windows Vista HP-UX 11i and 11i v2 Solaris 9 HP-UX 11i and 11i v2 HP-UX 11i and 11i v2 [See Note 2] Supported Environments 5

Table 2. Supported Application Servers (Continued) These Application Servers... Sun ONE 7.0 (also called Java System Application Server Platform Edition 7.0) Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8.0 Run on These Operating Systems Windows 2000 and Windows XP Solaris 9 Solaris 9 Integrated Development Environments 1 You must use Sun JDK with WebLogic 9.x. WebLogic uses JRockit 5.0 by default, but because of a JRockit bug, Memory analysis cannot be performed on applications running under this JVM. On Windows 2000, make sure your system JAVA_HOME is set to Sun JDK 5.0. For more information on the JRockit bug, see the Release Notes. 2 For HP-UX 11i and 11i v2, you must use WebLogic 9.1 or higher. 3 To use WebSphere with JVMTI, you must have WebSphere release 6.1.09 with IBM s JDK 1.5 SR5. 4 The nmshell utility cannot be used to profile OC4J Integrated. DevPartner Java Edition can be used with the following Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). IDE integration is supported only on Windows platforms. Table 3.
