CLWLWGHT channel attribute

The CLWLWGHT channel attribute specifies the weight applied to CLUSSDR and CLUSRCVR channels for cluster workload distribution. The value must be in the range 1-99, where 1 is the lowest weight and 99 is the highest.

Use CLWLWGHT to send servers with more processing power more messages. The higher the channel weight, the more messages are sent over that channel.

Notes:

• Specify this attribute on the cluster-receiver channel at the target queue manager. Any balancing you specify on the matching cluster-sender channel is likely to be ignored. See Cluster channels.
• When CLWLWGHT is modified from the default of 50 on any channel, workload balancing becomes dependent on the total number of times each channel was chosen for a message sent to any clustered queue. For more information, seeThe cluster workload management algorithm.
