Usage Note 56203: Downloading the SAS® Private Java Runtime Environment version 7, version 8, or version 11 update for SAS® 9.3 and SAS® 9.4
 |  |  |  |  |
SAS delivers regular updates of the SAS Private JRE based on Java 11 for use with SAS® 9.4M8 (TS1M8) and Java 8 for use on z/OS and z64 on SAS 9.4M8, SAS® 9.4M7 (TS1M7), and SAS® 9.4M6 (TS1M6).
SAS has stopped delivering new Java 7 updates due to the decision by Azul, the SAS Java vendor, to end "Commercial Support" for Java 7. SAS will continue to provide the last Java 7 update, which was released by SAS in August 2022.
This SAS Note describes how to download the SAS Java Runtime Environment (JRE) updates for SAS® 9.4M3 (TS1M3) – SAS 9.4M8. For details about the requirements for using Java 7, Java 8, and Java 11, see the SAS Third-Party Software Requirements page, scroll to your version of SAS, and click the associated JRE link.
If you are using SAS® 9.3M2 (TS1M2) or SAS® 9.4M0 (TS1M0) – SAS® 9.4M2 (TS1M2), consider upgrading to a later release to leverage enhanced capabilities and a more robust support experience. If you are unable to upgrade at this time, contact SAS Technical Support for the Java update.
If you are using SAS 9.4M3 – SAS 9.4M8 on Solaris x64 or Solaris 64-bit, contact SAS Technical Support for the Java update.
