RE: SIMPLE QUESTION (truncating listener.log)

Hi,
You can truncate the listener.log without stopping the listener by doing this:

cat /dev/null > listener.log

It won't interrupt the flow of information into the file because it maintains the same inode value.

Regards,
Mike Hately

PS notice how "truncating listener.log" is more meaningful than "SIMPLE QUESTION". =) -----Original Message-----

Hamid,

Ignore my e-mail, as I had alert_log in the brain, not listener. As for the listener, for most versions, you would have to stop the listener, remove it, then restart it.

Thank you,
