Description
There is a known issue with JDK 1.0.8.152 or 1.8.0_151 versions https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8189788 pending to be fixed by oracle.
This causes the SF broker's Administration UI to only partially load with no menu options when you log into the UI, when on JDK 1.0.8.152 or 1.8.0_151.
This issue won't be resolved by applying Unlimited JCE is applied as per http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/8u152-relnotes-3850503.html either.
Hence, we advice customers to avoid updating their JDK to 1.0.8.152 or 1.8.0_151 from a lower version on Silver Fabric 5.7.x or higher for now and wait till Oracle fixes this bug on a future JDK version (tentatively scheduled for JDK 1.8.0_162) and update to that version when it is released..
For customers who already updated to JDK 1.0.8.152 or 1.8.0_151 please refer to the workaround in the 'Resolution' section below to workaround the issue for the time being.
