Yes, in AS6, the jndi name to which the hibernate 2LC cache manager is
bound is defined in the following file:
$JBOSS_HOME/server/all/cluster/deploy/infinispan-cache-registry.sar/infinispan-configs.xml

in the section that defines the hibernate 2LC cache configurations:
<infinispan-config name="hibernate" jndi-name="java:CacheManager/entity">
  ...
</infinispan-config>

These can be added as individual <namedCache/> configuration entries
within the config block described above.
