Docs latest icon.png Welcome to the latest SEP sesam documentation version 4.4.3/4.4.3 Beefalo. For previous documentation version(s), check documentation archive.


Supported Java versions

SEP sesam GUI is platform independent – it is based on Java and requires a Java Runtime Environment (JRE). The required Java version depends on SEP sesam version.

Java is required on all systems that serve as SEP sesam Server, SEP sesam GUI client or SEP sesam Remote Device Server (RDS) when Si3 deduplication is used.
Java is not required for SEP sesam Client (does not provide GUI) or SEP sesam RDS if Si3 deduplication is not used.

  • Supported Java versions are: Oracle/Sun Java, IBM Java and OpenJDK LTS.
  • Note

    As of January 2019, public updates to Java SE 8 are no longer available for use in businesses, commercial applications or production without a commercial license; for non-commercial users, updates will be available until December 2020. Oracle also announced that the Oracle JDK binary is no longer free for use in production from JDK 11 on; such usage now requires a support contract. For details, see Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap.
    With the upcoming SEP sesam v. 4.4.3 Beefalo (check out the main page for the upcoming release date), you can use a free OpenJDK LTS version instead of Oracle Java. You can simply install OpenJDK on Linux or Windows, as described in SEP sesam Quick Install Guide.

  • You can download Oracle Java at Java downloads for all operating systems.
  • On Windows systems, you can use JAVA verify to check which Java version is installed.
  • IBM Java and OpenJDK LTS are provided by the respective Linux distributions.
  • You can download OpenJDK LTS Java from OpenJDK LTS Download.

The following table shows compatibility between Java and SEP sesam versions.

Java version SEP sesam version
OpenJDK 11 LTS Upcoming 4.4.3 Beefalo Note1
Java 11 Upcoming 4.4.3 Beefalo Note1
Java 10 is not supported!
X
Java 9 is not supported!
X
Java 8 (at least patch level 111) ≥ JRE 1.8.0_111 (required for Linux) v. ≥ 4.4.3 Tigon V2
Java 8 (required for Windows) v. ≥ 4.4.3
Java 7 (all OS except Windows) 4.4.3 Note2
Java 7 4.4.2
Java 6 4.2.1 & 4.2.2
Note1

Java 1.8 (≥ 1.8.0_111) is only accepted if it is already installed and the computer does not have a 4K display.

Note2

SEP sesam versions 4.4.3 until 4.4.3 Tigon V1 running on non-Windows platform require Java 7, however, SEP sesam uses JavaFX for its web dashboard and user-defined schedules features. If you want to have all the 4.4.3 features available, you need OpenJFX package or Oracle®'s Java 8 (already includes JavaFX) on your SEP sesam GUI client.
