No brainer and Toplink team has done a great job to make it very simple and a matter of running a script. Even though the steps are clearly documented on http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/UserManual but you may run into some gotchas. Some of the very advanced Toplink mappings use amendment methods and post insert, build events etc. These information are stored in Toplink's classes and descriptors XML files. The migration scripts of Eclipselink does not replace these classes even if the mwp file is successfully opened in the workbench. The solution is very simple.. Replace all classes starting with package name oracle.toplink to org.eclipse.persistence under the classes/ and descriptors/ directory of the Toplink workbench. And following script can be handy as well:
for i in `ls *`
do
sed "s/$1/$2/g" $i > t;
mv t $i;
done

Hi Susant,
I do not work on the EJBs so I may not be the right person to answer this but there is a Toplink/JPA forum you can bounce your question off of: https://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=48
