How are you creating your EntityManager/Factory, is it managed or non-managed?

If it is not managed, then I believe that EclipseLink will not be notified in any way of a redeployment, so will still have the old EntityManagerFactory cached as it is never closed. Can you ensure that you close the EntityManagerFactory after the hot deploy?
