I am attempting to use commit-option D for my enity beans. I have not been able to find the configuration that will achieve the caching I want. I am expecting the Entity Bean to be cached for 180 seconds and then refresh from the db. Instead, when I update the db through an external program, the change is reflected immediatly.

I have included my jboss.xml file below. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks. Jeff
