Don, If there is a local instance of the cluster queue on the QM to which the client has connected, then AFAIK, messages will always be put to that local instance.
I think load balancing comes into play when the cluster queue exists on other QMs in the cluster, but not the one to which you are connected Cheers Dave Instructions for managing your mailing list subscription are provided in the Listserv General Users Guide available at http://www.lsoft.com Archive: http://vm.akh-wien.ac.at/MQSeries.archive
