!!Hi, I had a situation yesterday where a
rogue process wrote millions oferror messages into the alert log. I was able
to get rid of the process,then delete the error messages out. But it would
have been quicker to justblow it away and create a new, empty one. I was
concerned as to the effectthat would have on Oracle. Would it bring Oracle
down? What is the best wayto handle this?Bill
