Complementing to JP's comments, please find the sample configuration below --

(a)
!
interface Tunnel1
  tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng bandwidth <>
.....
(b)
interface Tunnel1
  tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
  tunnel mpls traffic-eng load-share <>
.....
!

Both achieve the same result of loadsharing.
The additional thing (a) gets you is that it also reserves the configured 
bandwidth from the headend to tail-end via RSVP.

Once you do that, feel free to check either RIB or CEF output to compare 
the "traffic share count" for each path.


Cheers,
Rajiv
