War state and influence

In all the guides it states that when a system is in war state influence is frozen. Is that just for the factions involved in the war or is that for all factions in that system?
 
Just the factions involved. For wars, civil wars and elections.

However, having two or more factions with their influence fixed can leave less room for movement among the other factions.

Depends on the distribution of the influence. If one or more potential adversary is tied up in conflict with lowish numbers, the time can usefully be used to boost a favoured faction without competition.
