How to find the location of logical log file
Given a logical log file, wow can we find out its location
(dbspace) ?
onstat -l doesn't show this info.Thanks

It actually is in the onstat -l output. The "begin" column is the
physical address of the begining of that log file. The physical
address is a chunk number and page offset into that chunk. Prior to
10, "begin" would be in the format of CCCPPPPP where C = chunk number
in hex and P is the page offset in hex. All, 5 P locations would be
in use, but not all C positions would be used if not required. In 10
with big chunks I believe we format the output to be C:P with a ':'
seperator, so the number to the left of the ':' would be the chunk
that, that log was in. Then once you have your chunk number you can
map that to the dbspace with onstat -d.
Great...thanks a lot.

Using the sysmaster database:
SELECT l.number logfile, d.name dbspace
FROM syslogfil l, syschunks c, sysdbspaces d
WHERE l.chunk = c.chknum AND c.dbsnum = d.dbsnum
