FILES

FILEID

CHAR(8) BYTE

Identification of the file

SESSION ID

FIXED(10)

Identification of the database session in which temporary files were created

NULL for persistent files

ROOT

FIXED(10)

Page number of the file root

RECOVERYMODE

CHAR(10)

Recovery mode of the root page (PERMANENT for persistent tables | STATIC for SAP liveCache object files | TEMPORARY for temporary files)

FILESYSTEMID

FIXED(5)

File system identification of the root page (FILESYSTEMID returns the index of the database internal file system/converter the file is stored in. A FILESYSTEMID of 0 means that the file is stored in the default file system/converter.)

TYPE

CHAR(20)

File type (TABLE | INDEX | FIXED OBJECT | VARIABLE OBJECT | KEYED OBJECT | KEYED OBJECT INDEX | SHORT COLUMN FILE | <internal_file_type_for_temporary_files> | UNKNOWN | <other_file_types>)

PRIMARYFILEID

CHAR(8) BYTE

ID of the corresponding table if the file is of the type SHORT COLUMN FILE or INDEX, or

ID of the corresponding KEYED OBJECT, if the file is of the type KEYED OBJECT, or

NULL if the file is of any other type

FILESTATE

CHAR(20)

File status (OK | DELETED | BAD | READ ONLY | UNKNOWN)

ENTRYCOUNT

FIXED(20)

Number of entries in this file

NULL if there are no entries or if ENTRYCOUNT has not yet been determined

DELETEENTRYCOUNT

FIXED(20)

Number of entries in this file which are marked as deleted but not yet deleted by the garbage collector

TREEINDEXSIZE

FIXED(20)

Space that is occupied by index pages of the file (KB)

NULL, if the file has no index pages or if TREEINDEXSIZE has not yet been determined

TREELEAVE S SIZE

FIXED(20)

Space that is occupied by the leaf pages of the file (KB)

NULL, if TREELEAVESIZE has not yet been determined

LOBSIZE

FIXED(20)

Space that is occupied by LOB values of the table (KB)

0, if the file is not a table

NULL, if LOBSIZE has not yet been determined

CLUSTERED

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether data pages of the file are considered for storage in clusters (YES | NO)

This means that the entire file is stored in clusters.

DYNAMIC

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether a simplified overflow/underflow handling is applied to B* tree pages (YES | NO)

PACKED

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether data records of the file are stored in a space-saving format (YES | NO)

PACKEDNUMBERCOLUMNS

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether numeric values are stored in a space-saving format (YES | NO)

PACKEDUNICODECOLUMNS

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether columns with the UNICODE code attribute are stored in a space-saving format (YES | NO)

CACHE

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether table content data is stored in a separate LRU list in the data cache that is reserved for tables with this attribute (YES | NO). If the content of all tables with the CACHE attribute set fits into this special data cache area then effectively it will never get evicted from the data cache again once it has been loaded.

NOCACHE

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether table content data will be evicted from the data cache right after every access (YES | NO)

CACHINGMODE

CHAR(8)

Specifies how table content data will be handled in the data cache (KEEP | DEFAULT | REPLACE)

PARTITIONED

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether this file belongs to a partitioned file (YES | NO)

PARTITIONID

FIXED(5)

Identification of the partition

MASTERPARTITIONFILEID

CHAR(8) BYTE

Identification of the file considered to be the file of the whole table, index or short column file, showing the sum-values for all partitions

DOUBLELINKEDLEAFPAGES

CHAR(3)

Specifies whether the leaf pages of the b* tree of the object are connected by a double linked list (YES) or a single linked list (NO)
