Thread-topic: JRE_HOME vs JAVA_HOME

I assume the JAVA_HOME variable mentioned in most install guides specifically refers to the Tomcat requirement as opposed to a DHIS2 requirement.
I ask since I imagine JRE is good enough and the JAVA_HOME variable should be substituted for JRE_HOME in cases without JDK.
I just want to make sure JAVA_HOME will not be missed by DHIS itself if I have specified JRE_HOME.

Thanks!
Ed
