The Java version being used can be determined as follows:
In Help->About SICS, go to System Info. Select the Java tab The properties java.version and java.runtime.version specifies the Java version. The property sun.arch.data.model specifies if the SICS is 64 or 32 bit. Note that this version of SICS requires 64-bit Java 21+.
The SICS Configuration Manager module is protected by a module key. Start SICS System Administration Utility, open System Parameter Maintenance, switch to the Module Key tab and enter the unlock key for the Configuration Manager.
The SICS Configuration Manager module is also protected by a usecase. Make sure the source user (see Starting the Configuration Manager) is assigned a user role which contains the usecase ‘Configuration Manager’.
Because the SICS Java Launcher works by copying the DXC SICS runtime from a designated folder (call it F), care should be taken when installing a new runtime. The following procedure is recommended:
Install the new runtime in a new folder F2 Rename the ‘old’ runtime folder F to F3 Rename F2 to F Delete or archive F3.
