Java Version for EPM Agent and Drivers

Summary:

I am trying to find out how the EPM Agent assigns the JAVA_HOME variable and if it will require a higher version of Java after the TLS 1.3 update, as well as what version the EPM Agent should be on for this change. Additionally, it is noted in the documentation that the MSSQL driver must be JRE 1.8. Is this still applicable?

Content (please ensure you mask any confidential information):

We were told that only certain versions of Java 8 support TLS 1.3, which we understand Oracle is forcing at some point to connect to cloud instances. We also know that later versions of Java enable this by default, and that EPMAutomate is completely deprecating Java 8. However, it appears that certain EPM clients require Java 8 to function. We see in the documentation that in order to configure the Microsoft SQL JBC driver for the EPMAgent, jre8 is required.

Howdy, Stranger!
