To change the version of Java that is used by the server and tools, edit the config/java.properties file and apply the change by invoking bin/dsjavaproperties with no command line options.

You must restart the server for the change to take affect.

Inside config/java.properties, alter the value of default.java-home to point to the Java correct Java Runtime Environment (JRE).

Any time the config/java.properties file is updated, the bin/dsjavaproperties tool must be run to apply the new configuration.
```
$ bin/dsjavaproperties
```
