  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  If multiple applications are installed on a target
  (server or cluster), then only the first edition should be
  placed into ACTIVE state.  All subsequent editions should be
  placed into INACTIVE state when initially installed.
  With this issue, programmatic installations (not using the
  console) result in multiple active editions.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code changes were made to resolve the issue of having multiple
  active application editions on a single target (server or
  cluster).
  This fix will be included in the next available fix
  pack for WebSphere Application Server Version 8.5, WebSphere
  Virtual Enterprise Version 7.0, and WebSphere Virtual
  Enterprise Version 6.1.1. For information about recommended
