Workload balancing set on a cluster-sender channel is not working

Any workload balancing you specify on a cluster-sender channel is likely to be ignored. Instead, specify the cluster workload channel attributes on the cluster-receiver channel at the target queue manager.


Symptom

We have specified one or more cluster workload channel attributes on a cluster-sender channel. The resulting workload balancing is not as you were expecting.


Cause

Any workload balancing you specify on a cluster-sender channel is likely to be ignored. For an explanation of this, see Cluster channels. Note that you still get some form of workload balancing, based either on cluster defaults or on properties set on the matching cluster-receiver channel at the target queue manager.


Solution

Specify the cluster workload channel attributes on the cluster-receiver channel at the target queue manager.
