System extended stored procedures

Extended stored procedures (ESPs) call procedural language functions from Adaptive Server. The system extended stored procedures, created by installmaster at installation, are located in the sybsystemprocs database and are owned by the System Administrator. They can be run from any database and their names begin with “xp_”. The system extended stored procedures are:

xp_cmdshell

xp_findnextmsg

xp_sendmai

xp_deletemail

xp_logevent

xp_startmai

xp_enumgroups

xp_readmail

xp_stopmai

See Chapter 16, “Using Extended Stored Procedures,” for more information on creating and using ESPs.
