Create session EJB calling remote session EJB and deploy to base_domain.

package testEAR;

import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.naming.NamingException;

import remoteEAR.RemoteEJBRemote;

/**
 * Session Bean implementation class CallRemoteBean
 */
@Stateless
public class CallRemoteBean implements CallRemoteBeanLocal {

    public CallRemoteBean() {
    }
    
    
    public void callRemoteBean(){
        
        
        RemoteEJBRemote remoteEJB = null;
        try {
            remoteEJB = (RemoteEJBRemote)new InitialContext().lookup("RemoteEJB");
        } catch (NamingException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        System.out.println("Calling remote");
        String response = remoteEJB.hello();
        
        System.out.println("Response remote=" + response);
        
    }

}

Create session bean on remote_domain

package remoteEAR;

import javax.ejb.Stateless;

/**
 * Session Bean implementation class RemoteEJB
 */
@Stateless(mappedName = "RemoteEJB")
public class RemoteEJB implements RemoteEJBRemote {

    /**
     * Default constructor. 
     */
    public RemoteEJB() {        
    }
    
    public String hello(){
        System.out.println("In remote");
        return "Hello from remote";
    }

}
