Question:

Suppose we have a need for another Hibernate SessionFactory that communicates with a mutually exclusive datasource and our application server is JBoss 3.2.3.

Is it possible for JBoss to have more than one Hibernate SAR, and are there any special configurations I need to consider? Or is it just a matter of changing the MBean name and the datasource value in the jboss-service.xml?

Both SARs depend on the same domain objects in a separate JAR and have the same HBM mapping files.

Thanks,

You don't even need multiple SARs, just multiple MBean entries in your jboss-service.xml.

Using multiple Hibernate MBeans is no problem as long as the MBean names are different.
