Hi,

first of all, I hope that this is a correct mailing list.

I have an IBM server with Remote Supervisor Adapter II out-of-band
card which provides a remote console function using an Java applet. It
works fine with Java version 1.7.0_121 provided by
openjdk-7-jre-headless package under Debian and IcedTea-Web plugin
version 1.5.3 except one can not use "virtual drive" function:

works fine under Windows(IE 7.0.5730.13, Java SE 1.6.0.05):

If I start my browser(Firefox 45.9.0) from the terminal and launch the
applet, then it logs following error:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
VirtualDrive.PassThroughCommand.GetSupportedDevices()LVirtualDrive/SupportedDevices;
        at VirtualDrive.PassThroughCommand.GetSupportedDevices(Native Method)
        at com.ibm.asm.remotedisk.RemoteDisk.buildDriveList(Unknown Source)
        at com.ibm.asm.remotedisk.RemoteDisk.start(Unknown Source)
        at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:476)
        at sun.applet.AppletViewerPanelAccess.run(AppletViewerPanelAccess.java:90)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

I also tried with OpenJDK version 1.8.0_121, but the error message was
almost exactly the same:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
VirtualDrive.PassThroughCommand.GetSupportedDevices()LVirtualDrive/SupportedDevices;
        at VirtualDrive.PassThroughCommand.GetSupportedDevices(Native Method)
        at com.ibm.asm.remotedisk.RemoteDisk.buildDriveList(Unknown Source)
        at com.ibm.asm.remotedisk.RemoteDisk.start(Unknown Source)
        at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(AppletPanel.java:476)
        at sun.applet.AppletViewerPanelAccess.run(AppletViewerPanelAccess.java:84)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)


Is this feature not supported by OpenJDK? Please let me know if I can
provide any additional information for troubleshooting.


thanks,
Martin
