Re: Listener Log Aging Script
I posted this answer once before. 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.

RE: Listener Log Aging Script
It keeps the file handle to the inode not the filename so when you mv filea fileb the listener is still writing to the inode which now belongs to fileb so if you want to move it you need to do the set listener. On the other hand if you cp filea to fileb then the listener is stilled pointed at inode in filea so if you intend to truncate then the cat /dev/null cleans out file a whilst all contents up to that point are now in fileb. i think most unixes allow filea to delete its contents HTH Cheers -- = Peter McLarty E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Technical ConsultantWWW: http://www.mincom.com APAC Technical Services Phone: +61 (0)7 3303 3461 Brisbane, AustraliaMobile: +61 (0)402 094 238 Facsimile: +61 (0)7 3303 3048 = A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. - Walter Bagehot (1826-1877 British Economist) = Mincom The People, The Experience, The Vision = This transmission is for the intended addressee only and is confidential information.
