Almost have a heart attack because of it, the installer will replace 2 frameworks and 1 binary which will render the machine unable to login via GUI.
More, info here

My friend found this out the hard way as well.

Nasty surprise: my new Xserve came with 10.1.5, but all my other macs have been upgraded to Jaguar. The 10.1 Admin Tools won't install on Jaguar machines ("The version of Mac OS X is too new"). So just how, pray tell, am I supposed to administer a headless server remotely?

As oeyvind mentioned in the link he posted, you can just drag the Server Admin application to a Jaguar machine and it will work fine.
The server itself has the Server Admin app installed on it, so you can just log in via AFP as an admin and copy the app to your Jag box.

Server Admin, yes. I find that the 10.1.5 app runs OK on my 10.2 machine, and I can administer the server that way. Similarly, I can ssh to the server and do command line stuff.
However, the 10.1.5 Server Monitor app, while it runs on a 10.2 machine, cannot connect from the 10.2 (client) machine to a 10.1.5 server. Which makes it impossible for me to tell if the Xserve down in the server room is overheating or not...

As I recall, all XServe comes with free upgrade to Mac OS X 10.2 Server.

Although my Xserve shipped after the date when people began reporting free copies of 10.2 with new machines, all I got was 10.1.5 - no 10.2 on the drive or in the box. I am entitled to 10.2 through the up-to-date program, and I have duly sent off the required paperwork together with $19.95 (for "shipping"). Someday my prince will come, I hope....but in the meantime I'm a bit insecure about that headless Xserve down in the basement. The more so because my order for Apple Remote Desktop is also "Being assembled" for weeks, with no sign of a ship date.
