Hello Community,
today i found out that there are two folders under ..\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64 after installing the SAP Lumira BIP Add-On:
- sapjvm
- sapjvm_7
SAPJVM7 is only used by SAP Lumira, but not from the other APS servers including Tomcat 7 which are still using SAPJVM6.
- So why do not all servers utilize SAPJVM7 or better SAPJVM8 like SAP HANA does?
- Are there plans for 4.1 SP7 to allow SAPJVM7 or 8?
- Why does SAP Lumira use SAPJVM7 but still the old GarbaceCollector +UseParallelOldGC and not the the new Garbage First +UseG1GC for faster response times?
As the BO Platform is for SAP "the" BI Platform, i am a little confused that SAP tells us admins how to do a split deployment or Admins get ready for Java 7 in order to improve the performance, but as an administrator you have to double check the PAM to still have a supported platform..
So i would more likely phrase it like:
"Hey SAP get ready for Java 8 and deliver a performant and fully supported BO Platform for us Admins out of the box without manual tweaks!"
Maybe someone from SAP can provide some insights ;-)
BR,
Michael
