Joni,
Your bufferpool size is set higher than your region size, I did not know
you could do that
I would certainly look at increasing your region size, but you need to
check how much real memory is available in your lpar, and how much TSM is
actually using.
FWIW  I am using a region size of 768 mb and BufPoolSize    49152
My database  is however only one third as big as yours
Another thing not connected with cace hit is that you have  CommTimeOut
600
Do you not get a lot of sessions failing with this value, mine is set at
3600
regards,
John

The REGION is set to 512MB within the startup JCL.  I didn't know what the
max. is for the region size, so I didn't change that.  I will have to look
into increasing that as well.  Thanks!

What's your REGION set to on the startup jcl?  We're using 768M, but then
we appear to be a smaller implementation than you based on your database
size.
