1. Download IBM JRE 6.0 x86_64 from the following location: http://www.ibm.com
/support/fixcentral. (For POWER platform, download ppc64 version JRE tar
package. The followings steps are using x86_64 as an example.)
2. Copy the tar package into the management node. If high availability is
enabled, copy the JRE tar package to standby management node, as well.
3. If high availability is enabled, shutdown standby management node to avoid
triggering high availability.
4. On the management node, stop GUI and PERF services
HA disabled:
# pmcadmin stop
# perfadmin stop all
HA enabled:
# egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin
# egosh service stop all
5. On management node, extract new JRE files and replace some old folders with
new ones.
# chmod +x ibm-java-x86_64-jre-6.0-16.75.bin
# ./ibm-java-x86_64-jre-6.0-16.75.bin

package. The followings steps are using x86_64 as an example.)
2. Copy the tar package into the management node. If high availability is
enabled, copy the JRE tar package to standby management node, as well.
3. If high availability is enabled, shutdown standby management node to avoid
triggering high availability.
4. On the management node, stop GUI and PERF services
# pcmadmin service stop --group ALL

6. On management node, start GUI and PERF services
# pcmadmin service start --group ALL
7. If high availability is enabled, start up standby management node, and
replace bin, lib, plugin folders under /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/
