It's including an "ear=xxx" attribute in the ObjectName even though there is no ear, and is using the jar name as the attribute value. This comes from o.j.e.javaee.JavaEEComponentHelper.createObjectName(JavaEEModule module, ...) | StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(Ejb3Module.BASE_EJB3_JMX_NAME + ","); | JavaEEApplication ear = module.getApplication(); | if (ear != null) | { | sb.append("ear="); | sb.append(ear.getName()); | sb.append(","); | } | ..... | The general concern I have is that existing code expects Ejb3Deployment.getApplication() and getEar() to return null if there is no ear involved. The above is the only usage I find for getApplication(). Searching for other uses of Ejb3Deployment.getEar() I find them in DeploymentPersistenceUnitResolver.getPersistenceUnitDeployment(), in the PersistenceUnitDeployment() constructor and in ProxyFactoryHelper.getDeploymentSummaryFromContainer().
