Speaking of confusing version numbers... I recently ran across document #88219 (http://documents.bmc.com/supportu/documents/82/19/88219/88219.pdf ), titled "BMC Configuration Management Configuration Discovery Integration for CMDB 7.2.01".
CMDB 7.2.01? I was thinking "Atrium is at 2.1... maybe they added the "7." to make the numbering more uniform (like the Java versions)." In reading the document, I'm pretty sure that the 7.2.01 refers to the version of the integration, not the version of CMDB. But still, its a little confusing.

They changed the numbering mechanism starting with v5/1.5. Sort of like Solaris did when they went from 2.6 to 7.0 (which was really 2.7). Anyway, like Chris said, any 1.5 version above _12 will probably work, and there's probably no reason to not get the most current one of those. But unless you like a challenge and the occasional surprise, you might avoid Java 6 for now.

"Your best bet is to load the 1.5.0_14+ JDK on both the mid-tier server (which requires it) and the AR Server (which can get by with the JRE) since some of the functions that can reside on the AR Server also need the JDK. Avoid 1.6 unless you take pleasure in obscure java errors." "AR System (Server and Mid-Tier) 7.1.00 requires Java 5.0 or higher."
