Setting Java variables in Windows
JAVA_HOME and PATH are variables to enable your operating system to find required Java programs and utilities.
Before you begin
Ensure the required Java version is installed on all nodes in your topology.
Important: If Java is not installed on your install system, refer to the appropriate
documentation to install Java before setting JAVA_HOME and
PATH. For example, to install IBM JDK (Windows or Linux), see the Knowledge Center for IBM JDK.

Important: Names of some icons may vary based on
your Windows version.
Attention: When you add the bin directory for the IBM JDK to the
PATH environment variable, ensure that you add it before any other directory
currently listed in the PATH value that might have a Java executable. Also, if
the directory that you are adding to the PATH or setting as
JAVA_HOME has a space in the path, either contain the path in quotes or escape
the space by preceding the path with \.
