PowerChute Version 4.3
With all supported operating systems except HP-UX®, AIX, and Mac OS X, PowerChute installs OpenJDK 11.
To install PowerChute on HP-UX, AIX, and Mac OS X, a compatible JRE must already be installed on your system.
Solaris Sparc gives you the option of installing the bundled JRE, or specifying a JRE location.

PowerChute Version 3.x, and 4.0, 4.1, 4.2
With all supported operating systems except HP-UX, AIX, and Mac OS X, PowerChute gives you the option of installing a "private" JRE during installation.
However, this "private" version of the JRE, which is specifically for PowerChute, will take up about 100 MB of disk space. A PowerChute installation takes up about 6 MB of space if you have already installed a public JRE.
