When migrating from Jre11 to Jre17 our backend applications started to log "failed to create Hotspot JVM interface, using NilJvm instead" when starting up.
We use scala with finagle and twitter server and the only difference was the Jre version. We use Zulu Jdk. This https://cdn.azul.com/zulu/bin/zulu17.44.53-ca-jre17.0.8.1-linux_x64.tar.gz to be exact. We did use https://cdn.azul.com/zulu/bin/zulu11.45.27-ca-jre11.0.10-linux_x64.tar.gz before.
Naturally I would assume it has to do with using Zulu instead of Oracle, but why didn't this show in zulu11 then?
I can't say that I've seen any obvious downside due to this but I did found it hard to interpret what it means from twitter util source code and would like to build an understanding on what the effects of this could be.
Does anyone got experience with this?
