Install OpenJ9 JVM with OpenJDK on CentOS Systems
This section provides a tutorial example on how to download and install a binary combination of different OpenJDK and OpenJ9 JVM releases for CentOS systems.
If you are interested in using Eclipse OpenJ9 JVM, you can download an combined binary package of the latest versions of OpenJDK and OpenJ9 JVM for your platform. Here is what I did on my CentOS Linux computer.
1. Go to OpenJ9 download Website at https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html.
2. Click "OpenJDK 14" and "OpenJ9" to select the OpenJDK 14 and OpenJ9 combination.
3. Select "Linux" as the operating system, and "x64" as the Architecture to reduce binary package list.
4. Click the download button next "JRE - 49 MB" to start download, and save the downloaded file OpenJDK14U-jre_x64_linux_openj9_14.0.1_7_openj9-0.20.0.tar.gz.
5. Open the downloaded file with the following commands. I see the JRE (Java Runtime Environment) of the OpenJDK 14 and OpenJ9 combination in sub-directory, jdk-14.0.1+7-jre:
herong$ gunzip OpenJDK14U-jre_x64_linux_openj9_14.0.1_7_openj9-0.20.0.tar.gz herong$ tar -xf OpenJDK14U-jre_x64_linux_openj9_14.0.1_7_openj9-0.20.0.tar herong$ ls -l jdk-14.0.1+7-jre drwxr-xr-x. 2 herong herong 221 Apr 16 09:59 bin drwxr-xr-x. 5 herong herong 123 Apr 16 09:59 conf drwxr-xr-x. 57 herong herong 4096 Apr 16 09:59 legal drwxr-xr-x. 6 herong herong 4096 Apr 16 09:59 lib -rw-r--r--. 1 herong herong 1049 Apr 16 09:59 release
6. Check the JVM version:
herong$ ./jdk-14.0.1+7-jre/bin/java -version openjdk version "14.0.1" 2020-04-14 OpenJDK Runtime Environment AdoptOpenJDK (build 14.0.1+7) Eclipse OpenJ9 VM AdoptOpenJDK (build openj9-0.20.0, JRE 14 Linux amd64-64-Bit Compressed References 20200416_44 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled) OpenJ9 - 05fa2d361 OMR - d4365f371 JCL - 5757187cae based on jdk-14.0.1+7)
Cool. I have OpenJ9 JVM installed and running on my CentOS Linux computer!
