Determining Impact 6.1 and/or TIP 2.2 JAVA version (bitwise) on Linux


Technote (FAQ)


Question

What's the best way to determine the java bit-level which both the Impact 6.1 Server and/or TIP 2.2 is using on a Linux OS?

Answer

Run "$TIP_HOME/java/jre/bin/java -version" from the command-line:

Here's an example output of TIP using 64-bit java on Linux:
---------------------------------
java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build pxa6460sr9fp1ifix-20110401_01(SR9 FP1+IZ95392+IZ95393+IZ97453))
IBM J9 VM (build 2.4, JRE 1.6.0 IBM J9 2.4 Linux amd64-64 jvmxa6460sr9-20110216_75791 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled)
J9VM - 20110216_075791
JIT - r9_20101028_17488ifx4
GC - 20101027_AA)
JCL - 20110401_02
---------------------------------


Here's an example output of TIP using 32-bit java on Linux:
---------------------------------
java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build pxi3260sr9fp2ifix-20110727_01(SR9 FP2+IV03622))
IBM J9 VM (build 2.4, JRE 1.6.0 IBM J9 2.4 Linux x86-32 jvmxi3260sr9-20110712_86803 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled)
J9VM - 20110712_086803
JIT - r9_20101028_17488ifx17
GC - 20101027_AA)
JCL - 20110727_04
---------------------------------


You can also determine the bit version by running:
$TIP_HOME/profiles/ImpactProfile/bin/tipBitnessMode.sh [32|64]
Here's an output example:
---------------------------------
# ./tipBitnessMode.sh 64
WebSphere Java Path: /opt/IBM/tivoli/tipv2/java
This is a 64 bit WebSphere binary.
---------------------------------


Finally you could try running the -version above with a -d64 option.
Run "$TIP_HOME/java/jre/bin/java -d64 -version" from the command-line, and if it's not 64 bit you'll see a message like the following:
---------------------------------
Running a 64-bit JVM is not supported on this platform.
