Jesse Wilson commented on HARMONY-6376:
---------------------------------------

Yeah, I was using J9 before I changed my desktop OS. If DRLVM is the way forward, I'm okay with that.

> Following the instructions from our RUNNING-TESTS.txt file leads one to download an evaluation build of IBM's J9 VM. That VM is available for 32-bit x86 Linux.  Unfortunately, the script compiles x86_64 Linux libraries that are incompatible with the x86 Linux VM. The result is when starting the VM ("java") the process hangs:
> Can we ask the fine J9 folks at IBM to provide an x86_64 Linux binary for Harmony development?
> One workaround is to use a 32-bit operating system, which will work even on x86_64 hardware. Another workaround is to build Harmony in VMware or VirtualBox.
