−Joption

Pass option to the Java virtual machine, where option is one of the options described on the reference page for the java application launcher. For example, −J−Xms48m sets the startup memory to 48 megabytes.

NOTES

The serialver command loads and initializes the specified classes in its virtual machine, and by default, it does not set a security manager. If serialver is to be run with untrusted classes, a security manager can be set with the following option:

−J−Djava.security.manager

and, if necessary, a security policy can be specified with the following option:

−J−Djava.security.policy=<policy file>
