Dave,
This came from the list a few weeks ago. I amended it slightly but it still all works.

#!/bin/ksh

mv /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/log/listener2.log

/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/log/listener.log lsnrctl set log_file /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/log/listener.log compress $COMPRESSED_FILE

#
# now remove all compressed listener logs older than 10 days
#

find /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/log/list*.Z -mtime +10 -print -exec rm {} \;

A suitable crontab entry for the oracle account would be

00 19 * * * /home/oracle/tidy_listener_log.sh > /home/oracle/tidy_listener_log.log 2>&1

I have a listener.log that is rather large. I want to archive the current one and create a new one. From what I can tell is that I have two options.........

1. -Shut down the listener service (8.1.7 on NT 4.0)
   -rename the current log
   -startup the listener service again and this will create a new log
   listener.log

or

2)      -at a dos prompt type....


        -MSDOS> lsnrctl set log_file listener1.log

        -This can be done without stopping the listener service

Am I correct about these two methods? Just want to check before I mess things up. I have renamed my <SID>Alert.log before but never my listener.

Thanks,

Dave
