Jay,

Does this come from the alert manager? Do you have any of those new-fangled
11i modules (or should I call the 'mangled'!!). You could use the script
below (adapted from Govind who posted this a few days back)

set pages 100
column sid_serial format a10 heading "Sid/Ser#"
column username format a15 heading "DB/OSUser"
column start_time format a18 heading "StartTime"
column mins_pending format 999 heading "Mins"
column used_ublk format 9999 heading "Blks"
column name format a10 heading "Rbs Name"
column status format a12 heading "Status"
select sid || '/' || serial# sid_serial, username || '/' || osuser username,

substr(t.start_time,1,18) start_time,
round( ( sysdate - TO_DATE( start_time, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS')
 ) *24*60 ,0 ) mins_pending,
       r.name, t.used_ublk ,
       decode(t.space, 'YES', 'SPACE TX',
          decode(t.recursive, 'YES', 'RECURSIVE TX',
             decode(t.noundo, 'YES', 'NO UNDO TX', t.status))) status
from v$transaction t, v$rollname r, v$session s
where t.xidusn = r.usn
  and t.ses_addr = s.saddr
order by t.start_time
/

If the OS user turns out to be 'applmgr' for any waiting TXN then pursue
this from the CM side. Otherwise, you can look at the Forms users. In any
case, are you using OAM (Oracle Applications Manager)?
