Advanced Options

If you want to customize your Java installation, then you can use Advanced options to determine how and where you install Java.
There are two types of Java install
  • Standard installation uses platform specific Java installers
  • Customized installation uses Java compressed archives that are extracted to user provided custom paths
  1. Choose an option for the Java installation.
    Select Install Java using installer for installing Java to standard locations using executable installers.
    • If you have chosen to install JDK 8 release(s), which supports JDK and JRE package types under standard installation, then you will be asked to choose the Java 8 package type to install.
    • If you have chosen to install Java on OCI Oracle Linux instance(s) that has the required Oracle Linux RPM repository to support both headful and headless RPM packages, then you will be asked to choose RPM package type for Oracle Linux RPM repositories.
    Select Extract Java from compressed archive to extract Java to customized location from compressed archive.
    • If you have chosen to install JDK 8 release(s), which supports JDK, JRE and Server JRE package types under custom installation, then you will be asked to choose the Java 8 package type to install
    • Provide the path to which Java has to be extracted under the Customize installation path section.
