Number of pid in output from onstat -g ses

Please, if anybody knows about this question: What do it mean pid = -1 in output from onstat -g ses ? I have an excess of connections from a server, but we can not determine the origin (the application that opens the connections) Furthermore, the tty column shows "-", for example: session #RSAM total used id user tty pid hostname threads memory memory 4789782 netcli - -1 srv005 1 212992 65192 Thanks in advance

The program is running on computer srv005 ans is connecting as user netcli to the server. That's all what is available, probably because the JDBC driver does not provide more information and more is not mandatory.
