Sanjay, if I remember right, the server side setting overwrites client side setting. So you don't need to set it on websphere. Is your service pspsrv configured to be preferred on 3 nodes or 5 nodes? I get lost when you say 3 and then 5. Yong Huang Sanjay Mishra <smishra_97@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: I checked and found that it is using Server-side Load balancing. Can you please provide your expertise on the following. If I set the Load Balance =off on Websphere level - Service pspsrv is meant to run on 3 node -> Is the connection will go to all 5 nodes even pspsrv is supposed to go for three node. I had Servder Side Load balancing on and both Local and Remote Listener is defined. TIA Sanjay ____________________________________________________________________________________ You rock.
