Kevin:

Thanks. I see that RDi is configured to use the IBM J9 jvm embedded within
the product's directory structure.

So I guess IBM could make its jvm available as part of other client
products if it chose to do so.

AFAIK, Access Client Solution does not currently include such a bundle.

Not being a java developer, I was unaware of IBM's java open source
efforts. And the ACS ,documentation makes no mention of an IBM provided jvm
as an alternate to Oracle's offering.
