The configuration of this agent point to java 6

        NolioAgent -> /usr/java6/jre/bin/java

Cause

This error is the error you will get when the version of Java used to run an action is insufficient. 

 

Environment

Release : 6.6

Component : CA RELEASE AUTOMATION RELEASE OPERATIONS CENTER

Nolio Agent version 6.5

Resolution

If you want to run that action on that machine then you will need to upgrade the version of Java used by the NolioAgent to Java 7 (at a minimum). Using java version 8 is recommended.
