java upgrade will not require a reboot.

Application specific issues will depend on what application is using it. I've not had issues with application during a java upgrade. That might be becuase of the application that I'm having.

Shalom Joe,

Please be sure to go to http://www.hp.com/go/java

Make sure all recommended patches and their dependencies are installed. To not do so can cause large memory use and leaks and other issues.

no reboot.

The application should be able to run. I rarely see reboots for the java patches.
