This paper is one of a series of essays in Honour of Franz Ferschl's 70th Birthday. It is devoted to study of learning about the parameters of an \(M/E_k /c\) system. The nonexistence of information suggests to look for non-informative priors. The parameters are the average number of arrival per unit time \({\lambda}\), the number of served customers \({\mu}\) and the traffic intensity \({\rho}={\lambda}{\mu}\). Using the improper prior densities of \({\mu}\) and \({\lambda}\) the prior of \({\rho}\) has been obtained. When \(0<{\lambda}<1\) the existence of an equilibrium is needed. The case \({\rho}<1\) is detailed examined. An example is developed an the role of \(\text{Prob }({\rho}>1)\) is discussed using numerical results. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0930.00096].
