Prerequisite configurations for Session Archiving Server on Distributed environment

Java 11 is a prerequisite for Apache Tomcat webserver runtime. Before installing Session Archiving Server, you must configure JAVA_HOME.

Note: If you had an earlier version of Apache Tomcat, it was using JRE_HOME environment variable. If you have already configured JRE_HOME, you must remove that variable. Having both JRE_HOME and JAVA_HOME will cause issues with Apache Tomcat's start.bat and shutdown.bat.

To configure JAVA_HOME, complete the following steps:

  1. Download JDK version 11.0.16.
  2. Extract the contents of the ZIP file to the required location and folder.
  3. For the JAVA_HOME environment variable, point it to the extracted location and folder.
