sysslices contains one row for each slice (page chain) of a sliced table. sysslices is used only during the Adaptive Server upgrade process. After the upgrade is complete, all the data is removed.
In versions of Adaptive Server earlier than 15.0 syspartitions was the name of the catalog that stored partition-related information. This has been renamed to sysslices for Adaptive Server 15.0, with syspartitions now referring to the catalog that tracks all partition-related data in Adaptive Server.
