> In case we use `-Xshare:on` with additional flags (regarding coh or coops) and we have the corresponding jsa archive not present,
> we get this message/error :
> 
> 
> Error occurred during initialization of VM
> Unable to use shared archive.
> 
> 
> The error message could be a little improved, e.g. telling what jsa file is not present .
> For example
> 
> 
> ./images/jdk/bin/java -Xshare:on -version
> [0.017s][error][aot] Opening of static archive /build_linux/images/jdk/lib/server/classes.jsa failed
> Error occurred during initialization of VM
> Unable to use shared archive (unrecoverable archive loading error).
