I picked these up at the freebie table at our club's last GTG, but nobody knows what they're for, other than the CPU being that of a PDP-11:
















 
Looks like the L0201 was the T11-based console for a VAX 8600 so some of the other modules may be from the same. The Hierarchical Storage Controllers (HSC) used the same form-factor, but I thought that they all were F11-based, not J11.

I did look up the VAX 8600 as a result and it mentions a PDP-11 as being used for a console. Not sure if that's what the first board could be?
 
The training FMPS on Bitsavers states a T11 and that's what seems to be on the upper-left of the L201 module (21-17311-01); see: EY-4818E-PP-0001_8600train.pdf A J11 would have been costly overkill.
 
Looks like HSC70 Storage Controller Modules to me
HSC70 used a J11 Processor
from the IPB:

Module, K.PLI (PLI Port Control) L0107-YA *
Module, PILA (Packet Buffer Board) L0109-00 *
Module, ILI (CI Link Interface) (deleted) L0100-00 *
Module, CI Link Interface (added) L0118-00 00011 *
Module, J-11 I/O Control Processor L0111-00 *
Module, M.STD2 Memory L0117-AA *
Module, Blank 74-28263-01
