In the Administration COnsole of WAS 7, on the Applications > Application Types > WebSphere enterprise applications > application > EJB JNDI names section, I have a table with four columns :
- EJB Module (e.g. ProjectEJB.jar)
- EJB (e.g. BeanBO )
- URI (e.g. ProjectEJB.jar, META-INF/ejb-jar.xml
- Target resource JNDI Name (with empty fields)
Something like this :
What's the jndi name of my LogWriter bean ?
Below you have table with default names. Each bean gets short and long form. You can override default using ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml file or during installation via console. During module startup bindings will be visible in SysyemOut.log
You can read about default bindings here:
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v7r0/topic/com.ibm.websphere.express.iseries.doc/info/iseriesexp/ae/cejb_bindingsejbfp.html
Description Binding pattern
Short form local interfaces and homes ejblocal:<package.qualified.interface>
Short form remote interfaces and homes <package.qualified.interface>
Long form local interfaces and homes ejblocal:<component-id>#<package.qualified.interface>
Long form remote interfaces and homes ejb/<component-id>#<package.qualified.interface>
The component-id defaults to <application-name>/<module-jar-name>/<ejb-name>
One can set it by adding a file META-INF/ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml - something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ejb-jar-bnd xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://websphere.ibm.com/xml/ns/javaee" xsi:schemaLocation="http://websphere.ibm.com/xml/ns/javaee http://websphere.ibm.com/xml/ns/javaee/ibm-ejb-jar-bnd_1_0.xsd" version="1.0">
<session name="LogWriter" simple-binding-name="my/ejb/LogWriterService"/>
</ejb-jar-bnd>
We used to have a script to generate these server-specific files for the different vendors.

For local lookup :
String jndi = "ejblocal:enterprise_app_name/ejb_web_project_name.jar/ejb_name#name.of.local.impl.interface";
For remote lookup :
String jndi = "ejb/enterprise_app_name/ejb_web_project_name.jar/ejb_name#name.of.remote.impl.interface";
Example :
ejblocal:ServicesEAR/LogWriter.jar/LogWriter#ILogWriter
UPDATE : It doesn't work in some cases.
