    The base server files are different for each assembly, e.g. the
minimal assemblies are smaller. They come with their own 'var'
(different config.xml). Currently extracting JEE5 'var' in minimal
image will not work.   
   One advantage of zipped var is that it can not get accidentally
corrupted!

Thanks
