It is used to display statistical details about the contents of a database. Gstat does not connect to the database as other utilities do, instead it opens the database file(s) directly and reads through the raw data. Because of this, gstat is not transactionally aware and some of the statistics it gathers may include data that have been deleted, for example, by normal database transactions. Complete Gstat information can be found [here](https://firebirdsql.org/manual/gstat.html). **Common Command-Line Syntax** From the Firebird\\…\\bin directory run the following command: gstat -h -user sysdba -password j316fgsl “database path” [![](https://kb.arms.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/gstat-001.png)](https://manula.s3.amazonaws.com/user/9801/img/gstat-001.png) The database header results will be returned like below: [![](https://kb.arms.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/gstat-002.png)](https://manula.s3.amazonaws.com/user/9801/img/gstat-002.png) A breakdown of each header field can be found [here](https://firebirdsql.org/manual/gstat-example-header.html). The transaction limit for 2.1 Firebird SQL is 2,147,483,647. Was this article helpful? That’s Great! Thank you for your feedback Sorry!
