Can you run glassfish with JRockit?

Has anyone tried running glassfish with JRockit? I see some references saying it's not possible but they are very outdated. Anyone tried this?

From stackoverflow
  • AFAIK there was a problem on windows: https://glassfish.dev.java.net/servlets/ReadMsg?list=dev&msgNo=878. Linux and Solaris seems ok.

  • It is possible in Windows. We do this for several production, public facing, web apps.

    We had to remove some default Glassfish JVM flags, since they don't apply to JRockit (this is optional, it's just that the start up warnings really annoyed me), and tune the JVM a little differently, but other than that we have not run into any issues.

    (We use SJSAS though, but I don't think that should make a difference)

    Here are the versions of the software we are using:

    • Windows Server 2003
    • Sun Java System Application Server 9.1_01
    • JRockit R27.5.0 (Java 6)
  • The recently released GlassFish 3.0.1 states on http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/glassfish/index.html

    Update JDK support:

    HotSpot JDK testing/compliance updated to HotSpot JDK 1.6.0_20

    Added Oracle JRockit 6 Update 17 R28.0.0+ support
