Hi,
In EJB appserver, how to make sure that bean instance can be garbage collected. Do we need to take any programatic precautions?

the container manages the references to EJBs. You don't have to take any action to ensure GC does it's job.
a point to note is that you cannot use "this" outside of the bean's scope (i.e. cannot return the "this" reference to anyone)
