Hi,

Yes you can...in fact, that's precisely the normal procedure so you can do that with no ill effects on
logging or anything else..

You should "trim" the log periodically to keep it a manageable size...some in this group may suggest keeping copies of it offline, but my opinion is that you needn't bother if your database is running smoothly..Incidentally, even if you delete the alert log totally, Oracle will recreate it and continue writing to it...

I hope this helps,
