Background information:  
Java Enablement from NetWorker Runtime Environment (NRE) version 8.0.x.

New NRE version 8.0.4: Critical JRE security issues fixed in new JRE build.

NetWorker Runtime Environment (NRE) provides an installer package to deliver a current Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for NetWorker. It is recommended that customers use the latest NRE which is provided as part of the NetWorker product entitlement, however customers are free to continue to use any NetWorker supported JRE version that they have licensed directly from Oracle. Existing NetWorker users that want to use NRE should reference the NetWorker Runtime Edition Readme Guide for details on the upgrade.  

NetWorker Runtime Environment is versioned starting at 8.0.x since NRE provides Java 8. The Java version that is provided with NRE does not directly correspond to Java updates, however new NRE versions will be released with Java updates as necessary. 

NRE is available for download for Windows, Linux, and MacOS. 

New versions of NRE will be posted in the NetWorker downloads section and will be noted in the monthly NetWorker Newsletters. Search for ‘NetWorker Runtime Environment' at https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/product/networker/drivers
