These files should be backed up after initial installation or after any patch update
or upgrade. A standard file system backup is sufficient.
JDK
Your installation may rely on Sun JDK, JRockit JDK, or both. The JDK can be
installed in Middleware Home or elsewhere. The location of your JDK can be
shared between the servers in your cluster, or may be installed standalone on
each server.
Regardless of its location, your JDK should be backed up after new installations
and/or a patch update or upgrade.
Here are examples of the locations of both Sun and JRockit JDKs installed out-
side your Middleware Home:
/u01/app/oracle/jdk1.6.0_26
/u01/app/oracle/jrockit1.6.0_29
