ejb-name

In the sun-ejb-jar.xml file, matches the ejb-name in the corresponding ejb-jar.xml file. The name must be unique among the names of the enterprise beans in the same EJB JAR file.

There is no architected relationship between the ejb-name in the deployment descriptor and the JNDI name that the deployer assigns to the EJB component’s home.

In the sun-cmp-mappings.xml file, specifies the ejb-name of the entity bean in the ejb-jar.xml file to which the container-managed persistence (CMP) bean corresponds.
