Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Trace file name camouflages!
I need to programmatically find Oracle database trace file. I can
find user_dump_dest and server process id (=SPID) by querying Oracle,
but I am having problem because trace file name can be
"ora_{SPID}.trc" in one database, "ora_{ORACLE_SID}_{SPID}.trc" in
other database, while yet another database can have trace file with
"{ORACLE_SID}_ora_{SPID}.trc" name format. How in the world can I
find which trace file format a particular database has? I tried
looking up parameter file with no success. Thank you in advance.
