Remediation/Fixes
1. Download IBM JRE 6.0 x86_64 from the following location: http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral. (For POWER platform, download ppc64 version JRE tar package. The followings steps are using x86_64 as an example.)
2. Copy the tar package into the management node. If high availability is enabled, copy the JRE tar package to standby management node, as well.
3. If high availability is enabled, shutdown standby management node to avoid triggering high availability.
4. On the management node, stop GUI and PERF services
HA disabled:# pmcadmin stop
# perfadmin stop allHA enabled:# egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin
# egosh service stop all
5. On management node, extract new JRE files and replace some old folders with new ones.
# tar -zxvf ibm-java-jre-6.0-16.50-linux-x86_64.tgz
# mv /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/bin /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/bin-old
# mv /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/lib /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/lib-old
# mv /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/plugin /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/plugin-old

# cp -r ibm-java-x86_64-60/jre/plugin /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/
6. On management node, start GUI and PERF services
HA disabled:# pmcadmin start
# perfadmin start allHA enabled:# egosh user logon -u Admin -x Admin
# egosh service start all
Platform Cluster Manager 4.2.x & Platform HPC 4.2.x & Spectrum Cluster Foundation 4.2.2
1. Download IBM JRE 7.0 x86_64 from the following location: http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral. (For POWER platform, download ppc64 version JRE tar package. The followings steps are using x86_64 as an example.)
2. Copy the tar package into the management node. If high availability is enabled, copy the JRE tar package to standby management node, as well.
3. If high availability is enabled, shutdown standby management node to avoid triggering high availability.
4. On the management node, stop GUI and PERF services
# pcmadmin service stop --group ALL
5. On management node, extract new JRE files and replace some old folders with new ones.

# cp -r ibm-java-x86_64-70/jre/plugin /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64/
6. On management node, start GUI and PERF services
# pcmadmin service start --group ALL
7. If high availability is enabled, start up standby management node, and replace bin, lib, plugin folders under /opt/pcm/web-portal/jre/linux-x86_64, on standby management node.
