No Its not the correct answer... if you do a DSPDBR on a
logical file it wont show you the name of the physical file
that it is based on. Rather you need to use DSPFD on the
logical file. DSPDBR on a physical file will show the names
of all the LF files based on that PF.

if you enter dspfd tgi3500l1
you will get a display part of which is seen below which
will tell the name and location of the physical file. But
if you use smart naming convention as seen here you wouldnt
need any command because our shop ends all physical files
with pf and all logicals with l1 l2 l3 etc thereby
providing he answer in the file name
