Executing in a container environment (per linux experience) can affect a lot of things in the VM. What exactly is NanoServer and is it a supported environment for OpenJDK? The current PR seems a point fix, but do we need to update other logic - e.g. version recognition to identify and report that we are running on NanoServer?

Thanks
