We've determined that the dynamic initialization feature of the ClearPath 
MCP environment is contributing to the high processor utilization and 
excessive log entries.  To solve this, the customer can either disable the 
dynamic initialization feature for those ports which are not in use on the 
system or place a third-party product (like SYNDefender) in front of the 
ClearPath.  For complete details on how to inquire what ports are open on 
the ClearPath MCP and to disable dynamic initialization on those ports, 
please refer to the FAQ on the Unisys Product Support website:
