You can place a jboss.xml into the META-INF of the JAR in which you're deploying your beans: <?xml version="1.0"?> | <jboss xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" | xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" | xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema | http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema/jboss_5_0.xsd" | version="5.0"> | <enterprise-beans> | <service> | <ejb-name>ServiceMBeanName</ejb-name> | </service> | </enterprise-beans> | </jboss> | ...check the XSD for the full properties it supports. :) S, ALR View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3989460#...
