I'm not sure what you mean by "all other references".
GlassFish has two concepts of an install location:
com.sun.aas.installRoot # /opt/glassfish3/glassfish
com.sun.aas.productRoot # /opt/glassfish3
While the internals of GlassFish typically use the former, important
end user interfaces, like the installer, use the later.
For the *-node-* commands, including install-node, we have decided
it makes the most sense to be consistent with the installer's
concept of the "installation directory".
Note that this doesn't change the meaning of installRoot or
any of the code that depends on that.
