3.3 Installing Zulu OpenJDK

Identity Governance uses Java to perform all of the processing of the data in your environment to create reports, reviews, and many other actions. You must have the Zulu OpenJDK installed and running on the same server where you install Apache Tomcat and Identity Governance. The JRE comes with the JDK.

WARNING:Identity Governance must have a supported JRE to work. Zulu OpenJDK JRE is the only version of Java that works with Identity Governance.

To install Zulu OpenJDK:

  1. Ensure that you know what version of Zulu OpenJDK Identity Governance requires. For more information, see Section 2.4.1, Identity Governance Server System Requirements.

  2. Access the Azul website and download the supported version of Zulu OpenJDK from the Zulu Community Download web page.

  3. Use the documentation for Zulu OpenJDK to install the product. For more information, see the Zulu Installation Guide.

  4. (Optional) Create and use a common directory for the Zulu OpenJDK installation such as:

    • Linux: /opt/netiq/idm/apps/java

    • Windows: C:\netiq\idm\apps\java

  5. Record the installation path to use when installing Identity Governance and OSP.
