I would like container to wait until next slsb is available from the pool.
The container can't wait indefinitely for the next instance. Atleast we don't have any out of the box pool implementation that does that. You can however set an appropriate timeout on how long you want the container to wait for the next instance http://docs.jboss.org/ejb3/docs/reference/1.0.7/html/SessionBean_and_MDB_configuration.html
