In that case you need to post in the DB2 section and also specify what you have tried already.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

Hello,

Suggest you provide more info (i.e. show some sample "input" and what you want as the output from the query) so that someone can maybe offer a suggestion.
Hope this helps,
d.sch.

there is no 1 query that will do that.
You can select from sysibm.systablespacestats wich should have a fairly accurate (30 mins delay) of the row count in each tablespace.
You can select from sysibm.systables which has a rowcount at last runstats.
otherwise you will need to generate a lot of seperate selects which you can then execute and union
Following query will have as output a very long select statement that when run will give you your results (replace ? with the schema you want
select substr(replace(replace(cast(xml2clob(xmlagg(xmlelement(NAME Y , col)))
                                   as varchar(30000))
                             ,'<Y>',' UNION ALL ')
                     ,'</Y>','')
              ,12)
 from (select 'select '''
               || creator
                || ''' , '''
                || name
                || ''' , count(*) from '
                || strip(creator)
                || '.'
                || strip(name)  as col
          from sysibm.systables where type not in ('X','P','V') AND creator =  ?
       ) X
I can explain it to you, but i can not understand it for you.
