IMPORTANT: In order to successfully install and
run JDK 5.0 for OpenVMS Alpha, mandatory prerequisite patches (ECOs)
must be installed. These ECOs are listed below. Do NOT
attempt to run the JDK 5.0 kit without first installing these
ECOs. Also note that JDK 5.0 MUST be installed
on an ODS-5 formatted disk.
Technical support requests relating to OpenVMS Alpha and these
patches should be sent through your normal service and support channels.
For more information, see software
support.
The ECOs cited below for OpenVMS Alpha V8.2 and
V8.3 are required to run the JDK. Note there are two types
of mandatory ECOs:
- Mandatory Rating 1 ECOs for OpenVMS Alpha. These
ECOs must be installed and up-to-date. Note that
some ECOs in this category were released specifically to address
Java problems.
- Additional Mandatory ECOs for Java Applications.
These ECOs are required when using the JDK.
The latest ECO kits can be downloaded from the HP Support Center by using your HP Passport account.
| Install
the patch versions listed below, or later, if superseded.

Note for Additional Mandatory ECOs:
Because the status of ECOs changes frequently as new versions
supersede previous versions, we recommend that you search the
ECOs cited above, and install the 'most recent' version resulting
in your search. To verify that you have the correct file, refer
to the 'Patch Details'. The Release Notes generally list any ECO
kits superseded by the most current kit.
Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT: Before installing the required patches, you should
read the patch documentation for any restrictions that might affect
you. In most cases you can examine these files via a web browser,
or download the patch kit and extract the documentation files.
Operating System Upgrade
Please note that OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.2 or higher
is required to run JDK 5.0. Visit the OpenVMS
Web site if you need to upgrade your operating system.
