Others have told you about the auto-generate tables setting, but it's not
all there is to it.
In fact, it's largely irrelevant, since skipping table auto-create does
not magically create the correct table/column bindings for you. You need
to put those in your orion-ejb-jar.xml
IMO, the easy way to do this is the following
1) Start your app as normal
2) As soon as Orion finishes deployment, kill it
3) Edit the generated orion-ejb-jar.xml placing correct table and
column names (don't forget the finders!)
4) Put the edited file in your ejb.jar under /orion (I think)
5) Drop the auto-created tables, if any
6) Redeploy
