JDBC_PING if configured with jndi resources will cause :

IllegalArgumentException: Could not lookup datasource
NameNotFoundException
IllegalStateException

The same jndi resource is correctly found and used by a deployed application.
It seems the jndi resouce is not ready, yet, when JGROUPS needs it.
