B Updating the JDK After Installing and Configuring an Oracle Fusion Middleware Product

Consider that you have an unsupported JDK version installed on your machine. When you install and configure an Oracle Fusion Middleware product, the utilities, such as Configuration Wizard (config.sh|exe), OPatch, or RCU point to a default JDK. The supported JDK version for this release is jdk17.0.12 and it carries security enhancements and bug fixes. You can upgrade the existing JDK to a newer version, and can have the complete product stack point to the newer version of the JDK.

You can maintain multiple versions of JDK and switch to the required version on need basis.
