Hi,
At any given instantaneous moment, within a single server/VM instance, there
only should be one entity bean instance that represents a database row (this
is how most ejb servers maintain data locking/integrity).
However, row identity can swap across bean instances over time, and within a
clustered environment you can have multiple bean instances representing the
same row across multiple servers.

Subject: one instance of any given entity bean?
I seem to have read conflicting reports of this:
Is it true that there is only ever 1 instance of a particular entity bean?
In other words, if there are three rows in a table, representing Bob, Jim,
and Tom,
and we have an entity class called Person,
there will only ever be one Person instance containing the values from
Bob's row?
Or could there potentially be 3 instances each representing Bob?
thanks,
Adena
