Updating the Java SDK
2010-04-21If you want to update the Java SDK you use to run QueueMetrics, it is very easy
to do it.
Download and install a new version of Java SDK (from SUN, it's better - do not use GCJ).
You can install it anywhere on your system - like imagine you install it as /opt/java/jdk1.6.0b7.
As QueueMetrics accesses its own Java SDK under a symbolic link placed at /usr/local/queuemetrics/java, it is trivial to change that to use a different SDK.
then restart QueueMetrics.
To check that the new Java is working, go to the License page and check the Java version that it is using.

cd /usr/local/queuemetrics
rm -f java
ln -s /opt/java/jdk1.6.0b7 java
