Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1 Installation Guide and Release Notes

Planning Your Installation

Plan your installation to determine where to install the packages supplied with the product and to ensure that your machine meets the installation requirements.

Upgrading from Previous Versions

If you are upgrading your Java Dynamic Management Kit from versions 3.0, 3.2, or 4.0, you are not required to uninstall the earlier version. Version 4.1 has a different installation structure that allows both old and new versions of the product to coexist on the same machine.

However, if you are reinstalling version 4.1 of the Java Dynamic Management Kit, you should first remove your previous installation. This procedure is described in "Removing or Reinstalling the Product Software". Then you may proceed to reinstall the current version.

Software Packages

The Java Dynamic Management Kit 4.1 is composed of the Solaris software packages listed in Table 1-1. It is possible to install only certain packages on a machine, according to your requirements. There is a version of each package for both the JavaTM 2 and the JDKTM 1.1 environments.
