Adding the "isRuntime=true" did the trick, now I see profile service invoking the bean correctly. Thank you. I am using JBossAS 5.1, I just manually copied the -jboss-beans.xml file to deploy directory to deploy the bean. I see that only beans that have @ManagementObject annotation + deployed through bean deployer (thru -jboss-bean.xml) file are accessible through the profile service. Is there a way I can build a bean with @ManagementObject annotation but initialized through "new myBean()", some how injected into managed objects collection? Thank you. Ramesh..
