I have three files in a library that I am testing with.

TESTSQL - Created via a CREATE TABLE.

TESTDDS - Created via DDS.

TESTPF - Created via CRTPF specifying a record length instead of DDS.

When I query syspartitionstat, I only see TESTSQL and TESTDDS. Why
am I not seeing TESTPF?

We are running 6.1 if that makes a difference.


The fact that SYSPSTAT aka SystemPartitionStat is a VIEW, rather than a TABLE, is telling. In review of the SYSPSTAT View Definition, will be found the answer; most likely, there is selection in a WHERE-clause that precludes non-relational files, per the predicate DBXREL='Y'. Similarly, any files in QTEMP are also not included, but because they are not in the Database Cross Reference (DBXREF) [effective catalog] file being referenced in the query of that VIEW, rather than by omission of data that could potentially be generated. The UDTF [QSYS2.PARTITION_STATISTICS] that performs the dynamic retrieval of the list of /members/ in the files [irrespective that relational test], can be invoked in less restrictive ways, for which the QTEMP and non-relational attributes would not be an issue.
