Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: logs
I don't disagree that there is potentially useful information in the TNS
log. However, if you consider 470,000 connections per month to be a
surprisingly high number, in a previous life we had applications that
saw this many connections every couple of days. (I don't have any hard
numbers, but this is probably a good order of magnitude.) As a result,
trying to sift any useful information from this amount of noise was
virtually impossible.
That said, if there are particular events in which you are interested, I agree that Perl would do a nice job of culling through the hundreds of thousands of log entries to find them.

Believe me, it can be a very handy log file. I had a client in December with Listener crash and hang issues, and this little log showed that 470000 (yes, four hundred and seventy thousand) connections that had been made that month.
We shot the developer responsible :-)
I agree with Jared - automate monitoring of this. I hear perl is useful for this, right Jared? :-P
