Overview

The default behavior of iWay Service Manager (iSM) takes the default Java Virtual Machine (JVM) startup options. However, these default options are configured to run the JVM in a client mode when running a 32-bit virtual machine (VM). When using a 64-bit VM the default is server mode, so there is no need for any changes.

Prerequisites

To run iSM in VM server mode, you must have a JDK/SDK installed. However, if you only have a JRE installed, you can perform any of the following options:

You can install the JDK on top of the JRE installation.
You can take the server folder from the JDK installation and copy it to a JRE bin directory (for example, C:\Java\jre6\bin). Please note that you may have to do this for option one anyway.

Note: Option two is documented and supported by SUN. For more information, refer to the following Web site:
