Mixing Container-managed and Application-managed Services

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

You can mix container-managed and application-managed services in the same enterprise server, but in these circumstances it is even more important that the application-managed services complete with all resources either committed or rolled back. This is because when the application container commits or rolls back resources on behalf of a container-managed application, it commits or rolls back all outstanding updates, including any outstanding from application-managed services that ran previously.
