RE: Listener.log

[John Carlson]

For those of you who did not see my response in the thread of "Perl DBA Tools" I will repeat it here, it answers this thread as well.  Also, there is no need to shutdown the database to bounce the listener.   How about wrapping this in 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 $ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME   This way, you don't have to stop the listener and you don't loose anything.  Remember, in Unix, when you rename a file, any program that has it open still points to it.   Regards, John >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/24/01 02:28PM >>> You can shutdown/start the Database and start listener would solve ur problem. -Seema >From: "Adams, Matthew (GEA, 088130)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: Listener.log >Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 11:16:49 -0800 > >No, you do not have to restart the listener. >touch the listener.log file (we do a 'cp /dev/null >$ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener.log) >and the listener will start writing to it again. > > >---- >R.
