Upgrade notes
- Java 11 is now required

Beginning with the September release, Java 11 is now required to run CloudBees CI. It is not possible to run the operations center, the controllers, or agents on Java 8 any longer. Java Web Start is no longer supported for inbound agents.
For more information, refer to Migrate to Java 11.
- When you upgrade to Java 11, you must update your Java garbage collection arguments (BEE-16018)
-
Garbage collection has been updated in Java 11. Many of the previously recommended arguments are no longer supported. When you upgrade your JDK to Java 11, you must also update your garbage collection configuration. Using unsupported Java arguments will result in startup failure.
For more information, refer to Adding Java arguments to the Jenkins service configuration file.
