ScaleIO (2.0.0.2 / 2.0-7120) broken with latest java
Hi,
I was doing a fresh install of ScaleIO on CentOS 7, EMC-ScaleIO-gateway-2.0-7120.0.x86_64.rpm installs fine, but the IM Server does not start with 64-Bit JDK 8u112 (jdk-8u112-linux-x64.rpm). I downgraded to jdk1.8.0_40 (which is not easily available anymore on the net), and it the IM started afterwards. Is there a list of recommended java versions for ScaleIO 2?

Hi Franz,
I know that ScaleIO Gateway 2.0.0.2 had some issues when working with newer JDKs versions, due to SSL reconfiguration (removed RC4 from the list of allowed ciphers) - can you please have a look at below KB, try to modify the list of allowed ciphers and see if that helped?

Hi franzwurst
As you've discovered, the ScaleIO Gateway does not run on server on server with Java 1.8 build 91 and higher; this is a known issue (SCI-13981) and is documented in the ScaleIO 2.0.0.2 Release Notes on page 41. You've applied the correct workaround by installing a lower Java build.
The recommended Java version for ScaleIO Gateway 2.0.0.2 is Java 1.8 build 65, however build 40 will suffice.
With regards to the ScaleIO GUI not running in Java 1.8, try updating to Java 1.8 build 65 (realistically, any build between 65 and 90 *should* work).
I hope that helps!
