Background documentation Pager Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Pagers (data writers) are tasks in the user kernel thread that is responsible for writing data from the data cache to the data volumes. Pagers are active at every savepoint.

Note

Writing a savepoint can take a long time for a large data cache. In this case, the pagers also become active between the end of a savepoint and the start of the next one, to write the changed data asynchronously.

When the database system is restarted, the pagers import the converter pages from the data volumes into the main memory.

The system calculates the number of pagers required. It depends primarily on the data cache size and the number of data volumes.
