Yes thank you this seems to work well and was what I was looking for ... ( will come up with something that looks at the various adr homes and drives a purge based on parameters of how many days old alert files to ditch ).

Looks like it cleans out the .trc and .trm files together of course ...

#!/bin/ksh
. /home/oracle/ora_11g_env
adrci << EOF
set home diag/rdbms/test11g/test11g
purge -age 4320 -type trace
exit
EOF Received on Sat Nov 15 2008 - 09:12:28 CST
