The SYSDBFILE view shows all the dbfiles in your database, including the catalog dbspace file, the IQ message file, dbfiles in the IQ main and temporary dbspaces, the transaction log file, and the SA temporary file.
Files that are not dbfiles do not appear in the SYSDBFILE view. These include files that may be generated on server startup, such as the console log (specified by the -o switch) and the SQL log (specified by -zo). These log files do appear as database properties or server properties and may be examined by stored procedures such as sa_db_properties( ) or the system function db_property( ). (For syntax, see Table 14-1 on page 628.)
