Tables usually do not have digits in their names, and if they do they have a special meaning. We use them to name backup tables with date of an backup (of single specific table while sensitive operation), archival tables with year or for partitioning tables.

Query below finds all tables with digits in their names.

Query

select t.tabschema as schema_name,
       t.tabname as table_name
from syscat.tables t
where t.type = 'T'
      and REGEXP_LIKE(t.tabname,'[0-9]')
order by schema_name,
         table_name;
