The installer requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that is Java SE 11 or higher, including Oracle JDK, OpenJDK, and IBM SDK (Java) distributions. Note that a supported JVM must be defined on your path to run the installer.

Important:
  • To install the 32-bit Java-dependent drivers on 64-bit Windows platforms and start the SQL engine service, the installer requires the 32-bit version of Java SE 11 or higher installed on your machine and defined on your path.
  • As the 32-bit version of the following platforms does not support JVMs that are Java SE 11 or higher, the installer can install the 32-bit drivers only on the 64-bit version of these platforms:
    • HP-UX PA-RISC
    • Solaris
    • Solaris on SPARC
    • AIX

    Please contact Technical Support if you want to use the driver on these 32-bit platforms.
