Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Truncated Listener Log/backing up?
Now your getting fancy. You also could have two files, one with and
one without and simply cp without listener.ora ... cp with listener.ora.
:-) (don't read that as better)... but easier if one didn't wish or know how to code the edit.

If admin restrictions are on, you can turn it off in the listener.ora, then do a reload (lsnrctl> reload). After you rename the log file, edit the listener.ora again to turn admin restrictions back on, and reload again.

Yes, set log_file command to work, it requires ADMIN_RESTRICTIONS_LISTENER=OFF in the listener.ora file. (I believe that is the default, but if it is ON you can't rename).
Example:
lsnrctl set log_file ${ORACLE_HOME}/network/log/listener_${DATE}.log
find ${ORACLE_HOME}/network/log -name "listener*.log" -mtime
+${NUMBER_KEEPDAYS} -exec ls -ltr {} \;
find ${ORACLE_HOME}/network/log -name "listener*.log" -mtime
+${NUMBER_KEEPDAYS} -exec rm {} \;
####################### Cleanup old log files ###########################################
find ${LOGGEDDIR} -name "cleanup_listener*.log" -mtime
+${NUMBER_KEEPDAYS} -exec ls -ltr {} \;
find ${LOGGEDDIR} -name "cleanup_listener*.log" -mtime
+${NUMBER_KEEPDAYS} -exec rm {} \;

You'll need to change the current log from within lsnrctl using set log_file <newname>, you can then maintain the old one as you feel like.

Our listener log has grown too large and I want to back it up. It is my
understanding that it can't be truncated because it is an open file.
What
are other people doing to resolve this issue? This is on a W2K server
where the listener is password protected and security patches have been
applied. I want to add whatever type of process can be used into a
script.
