É possível ter um jobRepository no batch de primavera para usar transações locais, mas executar etapas de tarefas específicas em transações XA distribuídas?

Para o XA eu uso o Atomicos 3.8.0. A etapa deve ler a mensagem JMS e atualizar o banco de dados após o processamento.

A parte relevante da configuração da mola:

<job id="job" xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/batch">
     <step id="inventorySync">
         <tasklet transaction-manager="xaTransactionManager">
            <chunk reader="jmsQueueReader"
                   processor="messageProcessor"
                   writer="dbWriter"
                   reader-transactional-queue="true"/>
         </tasklet>
     </step>
</job> 

    <bean id="xaTransactionManager" class="org.springframework.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionManager"
          lazy-init="true" depends-on="inventoryDataSource">
        <constructor-arg name="transactionManager" ref="userTransactionManager"/>
        <constructor-arg name="userTransaction" ref="userTransaction"/>
        <property name="allowCustomIsolationLevels" value="true"/>
    </bean>

<bean id="jobRepository" class="org.springframework.batch.core.repository.support.JobRepositoryFactoryBean">
    <property name="dataSource" ref="batchJobsDataSource"/>
    <property name="transactionManager" ref="transactionManager"/>
    <property name="databaseType" value="${batch.data.source.type}"/>
</bean>

    <jdbc:embedded-database id="batchJobsDataSource" type="HSQL"/>

    <bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceTransactionManager">
        <property name="dataSource" ref="batchJobsDataSource"/>
    </bean>
