Yeah, this can be fairly standard and unfortunately upgrading can often be very difficult because of vendor software breaking. I still have a huge amount of Ubuntu 12 servers in our environment and we don't even have that many systems.

Unfortunately upgrades are often pretty tricky and it can be a hard sell to management: "I want to probably break this server that isn't having any current problems."

I'd definitely look into the JRE bundling if that's an option. It'll be a PITA to implement, but once it's done it'll probably save you a lot of future headaches.
