Verify the available Java versions

If you currently only have IBM Java SDK 1.8 installed, you will need to install a lower version before configuring WebSphere.

  1. From a command prompt, navigate to:

    WAS_HOME/AppServer/bin

  2. Run the following command to list the available Java versions:

    managesdk -listAvailable

  3. If necessary, install IBM Java SDK 1.7.
