What is Zulu Platform x64 Architecture Process?

ashasupriya — Wed, 04 Sep 2019 20:01:35 GMT

I have a SAS installed on Microsoft Server 2012 R2. The CPU usage is spiked up to 100% the entire day. one of the probe I am observing is 'Zulu Platform X64 Architecture' run as SYSTEM user is hitting the top CPU. I found this article under the SAS communities libraries.

https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/There-is-a-new-SAS-Private-JRE/ta-p/449109

Can someone help me understand if you had a similar situation? what action was taken to resolve such issue?

Regards,

Asha

Contacting tech support seems to be the fastest way to solve the issue. I remember a similar problem on our middle-tier server, but that was finally fixed with 9.4m3.

Thank you, I will go ahead and submit a track with SAS on this.

As a result of this change of the Java JRE provider (from Oracle to Azul), SAS administrators might see "Zulu Platform x64 Architecture Process" in their process lists. This change is described in this article: About the new SAS Private JRE.

If you aren't a SAS user but landed on this topic from a related search, you probably also have an application that relies on a Java runtime/JDK sourced from Azul. You'll need to check your inventory of deployed applications to determine which of those are affected.
