Message Queue 4.3 Supported Platforms and Components
This section covers the following topics regarding Message Queue 4.3 system
requirements:
Operating System Platform Support
Message Queue 4.3 is supported on Solaris, Linux, Windows, and
AIX operating system platforms. Table 1–2 shows
the supported versions of each of these platforms. For the hardware requirements
of each platform see the Sun
Java System Message Queue 4.3 Installation Guide

System Virtualization Support
System virtualization is a technology that enables multiple operating
system (OS) instances to execute independently on shared hardware. Functionally,
software deployed to an OS hosted in a virtualized environment is generally
unaware that the underlying platform has been virtualized. Sun performs testing
of its Sun Java System products on select system virtualization and OS combinations
to help validate that the Sun Java System products continue to function on
properly sized and configured virtualized environments as they do on non-virtualized
systems. For information about Sun support for Sun Java System products in
virtualized environments, see http://download.oracle.com/820-4651.
Component Dependencies
In addition to platform-specific requirements, Message Queue 4.3 also
depends on certain basic components that must be installed in order to develop
and run Message Queue clients. Table 1–3 describes
these components. Other versions or vendor implementations can also be used,
but they are untested by Sun Microsystems and therefore not officially supported.
Note – The Message Queue Installer for the Solaris, Linux, and Windows platforms, allows you to select an existing JDK/JRE or to install the JDK
version (1.5.0_15).
Table 1–3 Required Support Components
|
Component
|
Supports
|
Supported Versions [Sun Microsystems production versions only]
|
|
Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
|
Message Queue broker and administration tools
|
J2SETM Runtime Environment 1.5.0_15 or later

Table 1–4 shows additional
components that you can install to provide additional support for Message Queue clients.
You may not need all of the components listed: for example, if you are not
writing a C client, you will not need the C compiler, C++ runtime library, NSPR, or NSS.
