Java options and Classpath

Java options should be put in the isbalancer.vmoptions file, located in the isCOBOL bin directory, which is the default directory of the service. In this file, comments files are prefixed by a hash and each option is on a separate line.

Setting the Classpath in the isbalancer.vmoptions has no effect. Every occurrence of -cp and -classpath in that file is discarded. The isCOBOL Load Balancer service inherits the Classpath from the system and adds all jar libraries from the isCOBOL lib directory to it.

Note: On some Windows distributions it’s necessary to reboot the system in order to make services aware of modifications to the system environment.
