"How adding new images would negatively impact performance on existing ones even if new images do not share files or databases with existing ones? "
As a wild guess: Check the size of the signalling structures, if they support full signalling connectivity and if they follow the size recommendations. (at least one big and one small, and the default set to the big one; preferably no transport classes assigned to any one XCF group, but rather let XCF decide what to do.) "Can isglock structure be split over several cfs - rmf shows we have 4 cfs active - and can traffic be directed to a specific cf? (I'm almost sure that the answer is NO but I might perfectly be wrong)" Scott has already answered that. In addition, check if any one CF has shared processors. If so, insist that ISGLOCK is put into a CF with a dedicated cp. Also check the CF delays, all subchannel busy and path busy. One is caused by lack of physical CF links, the other by lack of logical links. Regards, Barbara -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.
