Exporting for access by Remote JNDI Clients
If an object registered to JNDI is supposed to be looked up by remote (running in different JVM) JNDI clients, then the object must be registered under the "java:jboss/exported" JNDI context. When it is looked up remotely, the "java:jboss/exported" prefix must be omitted.
For example, a JMS queue registered under "java:jboss/exported/jms/queue/TestQueue" can be looked up remotely as "jms/queue/TestQueue".
This is made possible by a remote naming server that exposes this namespace over remoting. The remote naming server has to be explicitly activated in configuration:
External JNDI Context
An external JNDI context is a JNDI context exported by a remote JNDI server that is mapped into the local JNDI namespace.
Declaring an External JNDI Context
An external JNDI Context exported by a remote JNDI server can be "imported" and exposed as part of the local JNDI namespace.
The external JNDI Context has to be explicitly exported by the remote JNDI server, as described in "Exporting for access by Remote JNDI Clients".
Once exported by the remote JNDI server, the JNDI Context can be declared an "external-context" and made accessible as part of the local JNDI namespace. Configuration details are available here:
