It does not load balance messages. And neither does BigIP. If you want to load balance messages, you need 2 or more Queue Managers set up in an MQ cluster.

It does load balance new connections. It is a feature new in MQ 7. See section 5.7 in this redbook.

And the CLNTWGHT parm here:

No it doesn't load balance messages and I never said it did.

It does load balance new connections because the documentation says it does. If it doesn't then you're doing something wrong or you've found a software bug which IBM will fix.

I admire the way you stick to your point in the face of documentation to the contrary. This kind of determination will take you a long way.

One point I should probably clarify.

I said client network level trafffic could be distributed with a network level device but there were pitfalls & problems.

I was speaking principally of connection traffic. One of the pitfalls & problems is that at some point someone will try and distrbute message traffic as well at which point it all stops working. You cannot do that kind of load balancing with a network level device.
