Description:  
============
Installing BE 5.0 in the same TIBCO_HOME as TIBCO Runtime Agent/Administrator 5.7.x causes the domainutility to fail with the following error:

**********
Error: Failed to create JAVA JVM

Error: Failed to create JAVA JVM

JVMJ9CL005E Incompatible class library version: requires VM v11, found v10 JVMJ9VM015W Initialization error for library jclscar_24(14): JVMJ9VM009E J9VMDllMain failed Failed to create the Java VM
***********


Cause:
======
When BE 5.0 is installed in the same TIBCO_HOME as TRA/Admin 5.7 it modifies the contents of tibcojre directory (which is part of TRA installation).


Workaround:
==========
Either of the following options should work:

1). Reinstall TRA after installing BE. This will overwrite the files in tibcojre (which is part of TRA installation).

2). Point the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to an external installation (outside of TRA). This means install JRE 1.6 from a website external to TIBCO (depending on the OS, for example IBM, Oracle) and then copy the contents of this directory to the tibcojre directory (which is part of TRA installation).
