Upgrade Java 10 to openJDK 11

jkinningerMay 19 2020 — edited May 19 2020

I was handed over a few servers that are running applications which require Java.

They are currently running version:

java 10.0.2 2018-07-17

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.3 (build 10.0.2+13)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.3 (build 10.0.2+13, mixed mode)

We are standardizing on 11 at the moment so I would like to simplify the management of Java and use the version included in the Oracle Linux repository -java-11-openjdk.x86_64 : OpenJDK Runtime Environment 11

I was Google'ing around trying to see what the best way to update so I am left with just the openJDK version 11. Is that just running 'yum install java-11-openjdk.x86_64' and then run 'update-alternatives --config java' ?

Probably making this more difficult than it actually is but just want to end up with just the openJDK version 11 on the Oracle Linux 7.8 server at the end.
