Michael,

Pin 11 is the XM (Transaction Manager) checkpoint. It checks the
Transaction Manager logs on each volume set and ensures that corresponding
transactions have been completed and posted OK to disk. It also checks for
"stalled" transactions.

AFAIK, it has been Pin 11 since First Release back in '87.

>From time to time, or randomly throughout the day I have seen (In GLANCE)
P11 MANAGER.SYS take up all our DISC I/O. The event will last for a minute
or two, and in that period of time all other process seem to hang. After
P11 finishes doing whatever it was doing, everything continues to run fine.
My question is; Can anyone tell me what P11 is doing. The machine in
question is run MPE/iX 5.5 pp7.

Thanks in advance,
