The locating and updating dialog box listed all the JREs that it found,
but C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\JRE was not in the list.  I'm
guessing that's the one iNav would use.  It's the only one I've found on
my PC not in lower case.  There will also be a log file showing what it
did, but if you run it twice it will overwrite that.  

When I ran the interactive mode and specified that folder the first time
it said it was updating and the second time it said that it was current.

I not expecting any problems, but if you run things like system monitors
in Management Central who knows?

Thanks.  I have it running.  I didn't have your directory so I am using
C:\Program Files\IBM\Rational\SDP\6.0\runtimes\base_v6\java\jre.  That
seems to be plugging along.

How did you know that it didn't update the client access jre?  Repeat,
how do I check my PC to see if it ran it, and if not, run it more
directly?

RE: Time change this weekend.






Exactly!  It's confusing as heck!!  The path I used was C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere Studio\Application
Developer\v5.1.1\runtimes\base_v51\java\jre  It wouldn't run at all with
C:\ but it would with C:\WDSC\sdk\jre so I'm guessing that it needs any
valid JRE to run

When the GUI popped up I chose the "Non-interactive mode: To search for
and locate SDKs/JREs, updating each one found."

After clicking OK on the warning that "This mode could potentially take
hours to run." I received a locating and updating dialog that ran
through the C: drive and updated 37 JREs in about an hour.  Let it run
all the way through, because it doesn't appear to update anything until
the end.

BUT, even that seemed to miss the CA JRE.  For this one I had to use the
Interactive mode and specify: C:\Program Files\IBM\Client Access\JRE

I'm guessing that it's case sensitive?!

Also make sure that you're on the current iSeries Access Service Pack.

The JTZU updater can be downloaded from:
http://download.boulder.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/dw/jdk/dst/jtzu-1.3.7
a.zip

The current V5R3 Service Pack is @:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/as400/products/clientaccess/win32/v5r3m0/serv
icepack/si26600/

The current V5R4 Service Pack is @:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/as400/products/clientaccess/win32/v5r4m0/serv
icepack/si25949/

I am trying that JTZU update at
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/dst/index.html
Checked out the readme at
http://download.boulder.ibm.com/ibmdl/pub/software/dw/jdk/dst/readme.htm

Changed the DirectorySearch.txt file to only all

Runjtzu results in:
C:\Qtemp\DST\JTZU>runjtzu
*********** Welcome to the IBM Time Zone Update Utility for Java (JTZU)
Version 1.3.7a *********** JTZU Home: C:\Qtemp\DST\JTZU\ Java Home:
/*ENTER JAVA PATH UPTO JRE*/ Go to the Time zone directory Launching the
IBM Time Zone Update Utility for Java (JTZU) ....
"/*ENTER JAVA PATH UPTO JRE*/\bin\java.exe" -cp
"C:\Qtemp\DST\JTZU\JTZU.jar" -Dn ogui=false -Ddiscoveronly=true
-Dsilentpatch=false JTZUMain The system cannot find the path specified.
End of IBM Time Zone Update Utility for Java (JTZU).

Obviously they want you to change the first line of the other batch
file, runjtzuenv.bat, and they alluded to that with:
**Caution: Windows Platforms After downloading and unzipping the JTZU
package, be careful to edit the correct user parameters file. 
For Windows platforms this is runjtzuenv.bat (presented within Windows
Explorer as "MS-DOS Batch File") 

The line in that batch file they want you to change is:
rem set JAVA_HOME to the a Java installation directory set
JAVA_HOME=/*ENTER JAVA PATH UPTO JRE*/

Which, I feel, conflicts with the readme instructions:
How to search for JREs and SDKs
Set the value of NOGUI in the JTZU Settings file to true. 
Set the value of DISCOVERONLY to true. 
Ensure that the DirectorySearch.txt file contains the value "all" as the
only record. This step is important on z/OS because the file can be
corrupted. 
Run JTZU by executing runjtzu.bat on Windows platforms, runjtzu.cmd on
OS/2 platforms, or runjtzu.sh on other platforms By default, JTZU will
search the entire file system.
The utility will search for JREs and save the results in the LogFile.log
file. SDKs and JREs that can be updated by JTZU will also be stored in
the SDKList.txt file. This operation can take a long time depending on
the size of the system being searched, but your JREs can still be
running while they are being discovered.

So, how do I determine that path?
