Hyperstatic balance of a simple beam

Hello,
I am new to MotionSolve and it seems fantastic.
I am mostly interested in forces balance of mechanisms.
I tried a simple example (attached), with a bar with 2 ball joints at its extremities, and a loading of 1000N in axial direction at its center.
What type of analysis could lead to a "good" physical result for forces at extremities?
Static analysis leads to 1000N at one extremity and 0 N at other. I would expect 500 N at both wouldn't you?
Thanks a lot!
