The documentation is so sketchy that there's not really any such thing.

You should be able to look up java:/BlackBoxXADS. Are you trying to look
this up from a client running in a separate VM? You can only look up the
java:/ namespace from inside the JBoss VM (i.e. from an EJB or a servlet
running in an embedded servlet engine).

However, java:/BlackBoxXADS is not what you want - it will give you an
XADataSource, not a DataSource. You need java:/BlackBoxDS to be bound,
which comes later...

Yes. There is an HTML interface to JMX available by default on port 8082
(e.g. http://localhost:8082). From there you should be able to locate
the RARDeployer MBean and then it should be fairly obvious howto invoke
methods on it.

Toby.
