The process with the lower administrative distance will install the prefix
into the routing table. If the administrative distances are the same (and
they are by default), then the process that "comes first" will install the
route. In other words, it is not deterministic unless you change the default
admin distance.

What are you trying to achieve with these ~3 OSPF routing processes?

Thanks,
