Greetings -

Winders 2000, SP4
Oracle 8.1.7.4.1

I'm thinking about using the "lsnrctl set_logging OFF/ON" commands to rename/copy the listener.log file without taking the listener down. While researching, came across this little tidbit in Metalink Note:162675.1 (dated 11-May-2003):

Note: Disabling Oracle Net logging is not recommended and should only be

      used under particular circumstances and/or under instruction by
      Oracle Support.

Has anyone used this command and had their listener crash or know of any other reason they would say this? I don't mind not logging accesses for the minute or less it might take to copy the file somewhere else. No SOX worries on this particular database/server.

Thanks,
-joe
