WLC4404 & WLC5508

A question for the community:  I currently have three(3) 4404 controllers in production.  We'll call them controller A, B & C.  When I install a brand new access point, it will always join controller A.  I'm unable to find where this is set in the controllers.  I will be installing two(2) 5508 controllers and eventually phase out the 4404's.  So I will want to know how to configure the new 5508's.  TIA

Most likely your DHCP server has an option (Option 43) for all APs to join WLC A.
