Pid               (Overview)

DESCRIPTION
The transaction "Pid" is the system process id for the corresponding 
Transaction Server. 


VALUES
A "Pid" is a numeric value, usually with a maximum of 5 digits.


INTERPRETATION
Each Sun MTP Transaction Server is a system process. Each system process has a 
unique process identifier (pid). The Transaction Server contains all Sun MTP 
code required to execute a transaction.


CONCLUSIONS
If Sun MTPScan shows that a Transaction Server has gone astray, use the "Pid" to 
remove (kill) the process from the system. Sun MTP will fork another Transaction 
Server in its place.  On UNIX systems for example, the kill command can be
used to kill a Transaction Server with a UNIX "Pid" of 28564:  

$ kill -9 28564

On Windows NT systems, the task manager can be used to remove a specific
process.
