I also try to increase/decrase the value of <max-bean-age> But it seems, this parameter is ignored.. Because there are no difference in passivation timeout, when <max-bean-age>10</max-bean-age> and <max-bean-age>600</max-bean-age> in both examples passivation timeout is 10 min. I want to decrease this value for testing passivation behaviour... but I cannt. How I can do this? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4126634#...
