RE: cdump, bdump, udump
I also monitored the processes and found that alert.log file is constantly accessed at least by one Oracle process during a period of one hour continuous monitoring. Hence, my conclusions: 1. By removing alert.log, the space would not be reclaimed by the disk on Unix machines immediately until you bounce the db. 2. Perhaps, on rare occasions, the space is reclaimed by the disk without bouncing the db. But this, in my opinion, is a rarity. Thanks, Rao [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2001 7:46 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I tried the 'alien' weapon - fuser - against the alert.log file. There are 18 oracle processes accessing it. A simple rm will delete the file handle but apparently not actually release the space without bouncing the database. Lesson learned. And, that's my limit for today.

Re: cdump, bdump, udump
The space is freed when the process accessing the file ends. In the case of the alert.log, it is accessed infrequently. The listener.log is constantly being updated on an active database and may not release as quickly. There are Unix commands which will show the pid accessing each file, including those supposedly deleted, but it has been a long time since I was a sys admin. Maybe one of the listers has the command.

RE: cdump, bdump, udump
I tried the 'alien' weapon - fuser - against the alert.log file. There are 18 oracle processes accessing it. A simple rm will delete the file handle but apparently not actually release the space without bouncing the database. Lesson learned. And, that's my limit for today.

Nope.

If you delete the alert.log file with the database up and running, the oracle still thinks the file exists and writes to a non existant file that you can't see.

Re: cdump, bdump, udump
With the alert.log you are incorrect. Oracle only get a handle on the file when it writes to it. The rest of the time, it does not need nor keep a handle on the alert.log. You can move or delete the file and neither Oracle nor the OS care. A new alert.log will be created as soon as Oracle needs to write to one.

Re: cdump, bdump, udump
Sinardy, Some logs are generated by default (alert_SID.log) but actions triggering entries can be adjusted through either initialization parameters in the initSID.ora file, via commands issued by the DBA, or by users who have been granted specific privileges/roles (commands like ALTER DATABASE, ALTER SESSION and the dbms_trace package come to mind here). If you were able to get the doc on OFA, you now need to go and get the docs on Initialization Parameters and Oracle Supplied Packages as a minimum. Regards, David A.

RE: cdump, bdump, udump
Wow. I feel just the opposite. When I had the paper docs, I could take one on the train, take it home, know what I read, feel like I'd accomplished something when I'd read a chunk, etc. I had a relationship with the books, my tuning guide had a corner bent, the app dev guide was missing a cover. With this electronic stuff, I can't 'sit down and study', I find its hard to get a feel of what I should read because it all looks and feels the same. I really miss the hard copy docs. My two pence.

RE: cdump, bdump, udump
Printer's not the same. I understand this is all ethereal, but it's not the same. I've got a collection of the docs in big black looseleaf binders with a label I printed on the side that says which book it is. It's not as carriable as a smaller book, (try opening one of those on a subway...) and all the books look alike - since all the looseleafs are identical. (Maybe I should get colored looseleafs...) As for buying the books - no way management wants to pay for them any more than Oracle does. And that's probably justifiable.
