In persistance.xml when the below property is added you will face this issue

<property name="hibernate.session_factory_name">hibernate.SessionFactory</property>
<!-- JNDI bound Session Factory Name -->

Unlike EJB entity beans, Hibernate itself is not clusterable so your application may be doing a JNDI lookup on a cluster JNDI tree which does not exist,
so it will only be pinned to one of your server as stated in the log message.

Please add the below property to persistance.xml to resolve this issue.

<property name="hibernate.jndi.weblogic.jndi.replicateBindings">false</property>

<!-- because SessionFactory is not clusterable -->

By adding this option, there won’t be any cluster communication on the hibernate object and the cluster features won’t be activated.

After updating the xml you have to clean the tmp folder and cache folder and need to do a complete bounce to make it working.
