It's possible; worth changing one of them and seeing if that fixes it (and having different names is a good practice in general.) Just start jboss including "-g SomePartitionName" in the startup command to change the name. The HA-JNDI proxy has an optimization to try to route the call to a local server if it finds an HA-JNDI server associated with the same partition name in VM. That *might * be what's tripping you up.
