Hi
I have 10.2 EPAgents running on ppc64le, by downloading the correct jre, and placing it in the java directory - no other changes were needed to the EPAgent or its config.
/opt/caapm/java/jre/bin> ./java -version
java version "1.8.0_191"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 8.0.5.25 - pxl6480sr5fp25-20181030_01(SR5 FP25))
IBM J9 VM (build 2.9, JRE 1.8.0 Linux ppc64le-64-Bit Compressed References 20181029_400846 (JIT enabled, AOT enabled)
OpenJ9 - c5c78da
OMR - 3d5ac33
IBM - 8c1bdc2)
JCL - 20181022_01 based on Oracle jdk8u191-b26
I got the JRE from the internet, replaced the java version installed alongside the 10.2 EPAgent, and it works correctly.
I am also using websphere agents on the same server to monitor websphere liberty profiles with the NoRedef profile cleanly.
I did experiment with the IA agent - the problem was the Tanuki wrapper not supporting the OS type. Tanuki do have the ppc64le wrapper available on their website, and I did experiment with downloading the community edition and putting it into the IA agent in a sandbox and did get the IA agent to start and run epaplugin scripts as an experiment only. I look forward to having this in a supported format also, as I am currently running a 10.2 EPAgent with the ppc64le jre as mentioned above to monitor in our environment pending this being supported and available.

Hi,
Any news for this RFE / support for Linux on Power?
We'd need this urgently for RHEL7 & RHEL8 ppc64le.
