Upgrading JVM while Application Server Running

68a3436e-f11b-4ddd-af2a-d0ea7b6d91a1Sep 27 2017 — edited Sep 27 2017

For our application server I want to know if I can upgrade Java without restarting the application server.


I am talking about minor upgrades of Java 8 (8u121 to 8u140)
These are Debian servers using the Install Oracle Java 8 In Ubuntu Or Linux Mint Via PPA Repository [JDK8] ~ Web Upd8: Ubuntu / Linux blog   method.

We are also using the JDK and we are using the unlimited certificates security package too.

Caution would dictate that I need to restart the application server but maybe not?
