Unable to install the SCOM 2007 R2 and SCOM 2012 probe on the same system

Currently it is not possible to install both the Probe for Microsoft SCOM 2007 R2 and the Probe for Microsoft SCOM 2012 on the same system.

This is because both probes use the same set of SCOM tool scripting files, namely:

tools/README.scom_tool
tools/scom_tool.pl
tools/scom_tool.sql
tools/scom_tool.conf
tools/CreateScomGroup.xml
tools/win32/TelnetScomProbe.VBS
tools/win32/WindowsScomTools.sql
tools/win32/WindowsScomTools.xml
tools/win32/WindowsScomTools.cgi
tools/win32/auto_acknowledge_trigger_windows.sql
tools/win32/update_scom_windows.sql
tools/win32/netcool_tiv_oli_socket/netcool_tivoli_socket.dll
tools/unix/TelnetScomProbe.pl
tools/unix/UnixScomTools.sql
tools/unix/UnixScomTools.xml
tools/unix/UnixScomTools.cgi
tools/unix/auto_acknowledge_trigger_unix.sql
tools/unix/update_scom_unix.sql


To work around this issue, after you have installed one probe (for example, the Microsoft SCOM 2007 R2 Probe) you need to backup and remove the duplicate files listed above before installing the other probe (for example, the Microsoft SCOM 2012 Probe).
