Is the IC RB still using an MDS-based II rather than a DBII? The "no
matching resource" response is a symptom of that, the underlying top-level
MDS doesn't respond within the II timeout so it sees no information.
(By contrast the DBII always sees information but it may be very stale.)

  Also, if that's the case, is the II pointed at the new RAL MDS? That
might explain why it seems so slow ...

  In any case any RB should be using a BDII, MDS really doesn't cope!
