ClassCastException: String incompatible with IntegerContainer for Remote EJB3 lookup from within the same JVM

Issue

We got a "java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String incompatible with org.jboss.serial.finalcontainers.IntegerContainer". This only happened in IBM J9VM environment, it works fine in SUN JDK environment.

the error log as below:
