I wasn't aware of that bug. I could be mistaken but I don't think you can use auto discovery to actually bind something into HA-JNDI. If you want to bind explicitly into HA-JNDI, you should add the HA-JNDI provider url to your context object. So you would add an entry similar to the following, using your own server name. p.put("Context.PROVIDER_URL", "localhost:1100") Note that binding something to HA-JNDI causes the binding to be replicated across all nodes in your cluster. However you don't need to bind an object to HA-JNDI in order for it to be looked up from a remote node. You can bind it locally into the Global JNDI Namespace and use HA-JNDI (with or without autodiscovery) to find it from another node. This requires that you have configured everything correctly, including the cluster itself. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3994971#...
