I have a master EJB which reads a job description from a database and depending 
of this job description calls a few other EJBs. A typical job would look 
something like:

i) retrieve some data through FTP, SOAP or some other protocol (EJB1)
ii) validate, transform and filter the data (EJB2)
iii) persist data to database (EJB3)

Initially I didn't explicitly set any transaction attributes on the EJBs, so 
the transaction started and ended in the master EJB. However, the first phase, 
the retrieving of data, occasionally lead to an timeout.

Since actually only the EJB persisting data in the database needs a 
transaction, I explicitly set a transaction attribute 'SUPPORTS' on all EJBs 
except for the one persisting data in the database, which I set to 'REQUIRED'. 
However, I'm also modifying and persisting a part of the job description (which 
was read my the master EJB). The problem that occurs is that inside of the 
persisting EJB I have another persistence context than in the master EJB and 
consequently I get an exception.

Would be glad for any suggestions of how to manage my transactions and 
persistence contexts. Maybe I ought to use explicit transaction management?

Regards,
Magnus
