Goal

With a mutli-hosted Tuxedo Application with a WSL Server available on each node, Tuxedo /WS client calls will not be load balanced across the available WSL Servers.

For example by using the "|" syntax to balance the load across these WSL processes (let say 3 WSL Servers), the expected behavior would to see a load balanced between all WSL Servers (with 3 WSL Server means 33% of calls per Server).

However, the load figures with be higher for the 1st WSL Server specified and will decrease to get the last WSL Server with lower load (with a 3 WSL servers list in WSNADDR: the load of the 1st WSL Server > the load of the 2nd > the load of the 3rd)
