Hi Tom,
Sorry that I missed this one...  Maybe you have already figured out the
answer...

First off, JPA does not play into your transaction timeout or suspension
processing.  All of that is part of the WebSphere application server
processing, so I would reference the InfoCenter for more definitive answers
[1].

But, I do know that any active transaction will be suspended when a
NOT_SUPPORTED method is encountered.  So, any time that your innerMethod is
invoked, the current transaction would be suspended.  As far as whether the
timer keeps running, I would guess "yes", but I think you need some JTA
experts to be sure.

HTH,
Kevin
