Nov 1, 2015 at 23:31 comment added Jim Humphreys @user: My proposed $E_7$ counterexample is not quite right, but if I have time I'll check further. Anyway, it's best to look at all possibilities first. Springer's tables are useful for most of the exceptional types.
Nov 1, 2015 at 23:01 comment added YCor The original title wasn't great but "A technical question about..." is a quite poor choice of title too.

Nov 1, 2015 at 15:20 comment added Jim Humphreys Can you say anything at all about what motivates this rather technical formulation? Also, you seem to be tacitly assuming that $n \geq 3$. Since it's possible to get a rigorous answer just by checking the irreducible root systems case-by-case, maybe that's a better starting point than just taking a quick look. [By the way, the header is not informative. Maybe just try something like "A technical question about root systems"?]
