in the rpm database as jdk-<VERSION>-fcs or jre-<VERSION>-fcs. So if the
puppet installer is looking for java in the rpm database they will not
find it.
This is for a production box and the client wants oracle java not a
knock off, no matter how good they are.

purchased along with Sun. It is not a knock-off. Sun went to a lot of
effort to be able to release the code, and Oracle remains a major
contributor to it. You'll even see Oracle's logo displayed in the
sidebar of the OpenJDK FAQ. Moreover, OpenJDK passes Oracle's TCK
tests, else Oracle would not permit it to be marked with the "Java"
brand. It runs a great many production boxes.
Nevertheless, if the client insists on obtaining a binary package
obtained direct from Oracle, then follow Michael's link to relevant
information.
