platform:ubuntu-x64

 jre-64bit

 build:6u14b05

 we have some test case like:

 Code below:
 _________________________________________________________________

 public boolean checkForSelectedVM(String mode) {
 System.out.println("Inside selected "+mode);
 try {

 String vmName = "Client";

 if(mode.indexOf("-server") != -1)

 vmName = "Server";

 String str = System.getProperty("java.vm.name");

 if(str.indexOf(vmName) != -1) {

 System.out.println("STATUS: "+ testName + " PASSED");

 return true;

 } else {

 System.out.println("STATUS: "+ testName + " FAILED");

 return false;

 }

 ___________________________________________________________________

 Result: The value of java.vm.name is server but the parameter "mode" is -client when we test, so they don't match.

I tried other linux-amd64(not ubuntu 64), the -client is there and supported.

So we file a jdk bug first, if it turns out not a
jdk bug(not supported anymore), then anyone from JDK product team can add comments and close it. Then we from SQE team say
the test case should handle this ubuntuX64 case.
