Installing BiSheng JDK 8 on CentOS

When running SPECjvm, you can use the BiSheng JDK 8 runtime environment to achieve better performance.

To install BiSheng JDK 8 on CentOS, perform the following steps:

1. Obtain the BiSheng JDK 8 software package and save it to the target directory of the Docker container on the CentOS server, for example, /home.

   You can contact Huawei technical support to obtain the BiSheng JDK 8 software package.

2. Install dependencies.

   yum install -y freetype xorg-x11-font-utils fontconfig fontconfig-devel
   wget https://repo.huaweicloud.com/openeuler/openEuler-22.03-LTS-SP2/OS/aarch64/Packages/xorg-x11-fonts-others-7.5-25.oe2203sp2.noarch.rpm
   rpm -ivh xorg-x11-fonts-others-7.5-25.oe2203sp2.noarch.rpm 

   

   In the preceding command, given that the CentOS repository does not contain the xorg-x11-fonts-others-7.5-25.oe2203sp2.noarch.rpm package, you need to download the package from openEuler-22.03-LTS-SP2.

3. Decompress the BiSheng JDK 8 software package.

   tar -xzf bisheng-jdk1.8.0_xxxxx

4. Configure the environment variables.
   1. Open the /etc/profile file.

      vim /etc/profile

   2. Press i to enter the insert mode and add the following content to the end of the file:

      export JAVA_HOME=/home/bisheng-jdk1.8.0_xxxxx
      export JRE_HOME=$JAVA_HOME/jre
      export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JRE_HOME/bin:$PATH

      

      Replace bisheng-jdk1.8.0_xxxxx in the JAVA_HOME environment variable with the actual BiSheng software package name.

   3. Press Esc, type :wq!, and press Enter to save the file and exit.
5. Make the environment variables take effect.

   source /etc/profile

6. Check whether the installation is successful.

   java -version

   If the Java version information is displayed, the installation is successful.
