Java versions running

Running HPUX 11.31 on Blade servers,...  Is there a way to tell what java versions installed are actually in use?  We have versions 5,6 and 7 installed and need to remove those not used for vulerability issues.

 

Thanks

Re: Java versions running

I know of no easy way to find what you may be running other than by running the occasional 'ps -ef' or 'lsof' command and look for the specific java directories in the output.

If you know where they are, you could look at the last access date, which will give an approximation of "use":

ll -u
