ORCLALRT.LOG doesn't contain timestamps!

Hi,

I've got two Oracle 7.3 servers. Both of them were installed from the same CD, using default initialization parameters. The problem is that their ORCLALRT.LOG files look diferent:

1. ORCLALRT.LOG
   ---
   Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 20551 Current log# 1 seq# 20551 mem# 0: C:\ORANT\DATABASE\LOG2ORCL.ORA Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 20552 Current log# 2 seq# 20552 mem# 0: C:\ORANT\DATABASE\LOG1ORCL.ORA
2. ORCLALRT.LOG
   ---
   Thu Apr 06 16:34:59 2000 <-- This line is missing in the first case Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 20551 Current log# 1 seq# 20551 mem# 0: C:\ORANT\DATABASE\LOG2ORCL.ORA Thu Apr 06 16:38:51 2000 <-- This line is missing in the first case Thread 1 advanced to log sequence 20552 Current log# 2 seq# 20552 mem# 0: C:\ORANT\DATABASE\LOG1ORCL.ORA

Aparently, the first file doesn't contain timestamps, which is too bad for me... Could anybody tell me where the problem is and how I can modify Oracle settings so that the alert file will contain timestamps? I can't find it in Oracle Documentation, "init.ora" files are identical...

Thanks in advance,

PaShu
