How do I start an Ant build in a separate JRE ? [message #148895]

I have an ant script with these targets:
1. Start McKoi database server
2. Shutdown McKoi database server

I have tested the target from a shel and they are working.
When I start target 1 from Eclipse, it works fine.
Next I start target 2, bit now I get ane erro message that there is
already an Ant build running.
This is right because the server is still running.
The error message says: "Concurrent Ant builds are possible if you specify
to build in a separate JRE"

Go to the JRE tab for your Ant launch configuration.
Set which VM you are interested in using as the alternate JRE
Update the classpath accordingly (generally should work using the update
button on the JRE tab).
Launch your builds.

This works great :)
I can first start the server under an external JRE, which can be the same
JRE as the IDE.
Then do all tests within the same JRE as the IDE.
As I used the same JRE as the IDE I did not have to update the classpath.
My Eclipse version is V3.0M3
