In my case, I would prefer it to favor the local lpar. We have everyone coming into that one lpar at present, so I have that lpar beefed up in virtual terminals, etc. This would give me a chance to add in the support without having to add a lot of definitions to the other lpars.

Since you mention telnet, a useful alternative would be to set up a Sysplex Distributor for your Tn3270 servers (assuming they are on MVS) and let SD do round robin or its (pretty feeble) load balancing. Then the multple, balanced Tn3270 servers would make sessions with the local instance of the GR application.
