About <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> JREsBoth <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Server and <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agents require a JRE. Some <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong>installers include a JRE; they are called platform-specific. Installers <strong>with</strong>out a JRE are calledplatform-independent. Depending on your environment and the installation package you use,you may need to define the location of the JRE for the server or your agents.You do not need to configure the location of the JRE when you do a platform-specificserver install on a machine <strong>with</strong> no JRE.You do need to configure the location of the JRE when you:o Install the <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Server (or the <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent) <strong>with</strong> a platformindependentinstaller,o Install the <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Server (or the <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent) <strong>with</strong> a platformspecificinstaller on a machine that has its own JRE that you prefer to use.o Install a <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent from an RPM. Agent RPMs do not include a JRE.How <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Server Resolves its JRE on any PlatformOn both Unix-Like and Windows platforms, <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Server resolves the JRE to usein this order:1. HQ_JAVA_HOME environment variable2. embedded JRE3. JAVA_HOME environment variableThe <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent has resolves its JRE differently than the <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Serverdoes, and differently depending on platform type.

Ifyou do a platform-specific agent install on a machine <strong>with</strong>out an existing JRE, you do not needto explicitly configure the location of the JRE to use.You should configure the JRE location <strong>with</strong> the HQ_JAVA_HOME environment variable if you doa platform-independent agent install, or a platform-specific install on a Unix machine thatalready has a JRE that you prefer to use.How a <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent Resolves its JRE on UnixOn Unix-like platforms, <strong>vFabric</strong> <strong>Hyperic</strong> Agent resolves the JRE to use in this order:1.
