How about wrapping this is a script of your choice:   ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME=listener`date +%Y%m%d%H%M`.log lsnrctl set log_file listener2.log mv listener.log $ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME mv listener2.log listener.log lsnrctl set log_file listener.log gzip $ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME This way, you don't have to stop the listener and you don't loose anything.  Remember, in Unix, when you rename a file, any program that has it open still points to it.   Regards, John >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/24/01 10:20AM >>> On Tuesday 24 April 2001 06:15, Rachel Carmichael wrote: > truncating listener logs -- or even starting a secondary listener, stopping > the one with the log that is too large and removing the log, then > restarting the original listener.... > Good idea.  Thanks Rachel Jared -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Jared Still   INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services    -- (858) 538-5051  FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California        -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).  You may also send the HELP command for other information (like subscribing).
