On NT, if you don't want to lose any listener.log entries and you want to
keep using the same logfile name then you will need to use set log_file
twice.

Also, under NT (at least with 815 and 817) don't specify an extension for
the log file - it automatically gets ".log" appended.

For example (something like the following untested code):
----
lsnrctl set log_file temp1
ren listener.log listener_tmp.log
lsnrctl set log_file listener
copy /b listener_tmp.log + temp1.log  listener-date.log
del listener_tmp.log
del temp1.log
----
You could put the date into the archived listener log using the for command
to process output of date/t and time/t.
Note that using set log_file requires the listener password to be entered.
This can be automated under NT by using something like:
----
        rem create the temp file
   echo set password %lnrpwd% >  %lnrstart_file%
   echo stop %1             >> %lnrstart_file%
   echo exit               >> %lnrstart_file%
   echo.                    >> %lnrstart_file%

        rem feed it into lsnrctl
   lsnrctl < %lnrstart_file%
----



Regards,
Bruce

Issue the SET LOG_FILE command using lsnrctl, then move/delete/whatever 
the old file.

Subject:        RE: Listener.log....writing to renamed file 

        Reload doesn't close/reopen the file.  Here is a couple 
solutions   

        How's about a fast cat/clear solution: 

        #!/bin/ksh
cat listener.log >>listener.log.hist
ex listener.log <<EOF
1,$d
wq
EOF 

        Or if you wish to purge 90% of the file: 

        #!/bin/ksh
wc -l listener.log | read v_lines junk
v_keep=$(($(($v_lines * 10)) / 100))
v_purge=$(($v_lines - $v_keep))
ex listener.log <<EOF
1,$v_purged
wq
EOF

glitter crayon: 

        ->Hi List,
->As a regular maintainance work,I have moved the listener.log file to
->listener.log.old
->and 'touch'ed the listener.log, expecting the logging into this new 
file.
->But I am observing the logging being done to listener.log.old, 
instead.
->I could not recall any such previous experience.
->FYI, I cannot do any 'experiments' as far as this system is concerned 
as I
->have to deal with
->desupported HP-UX(10.01), Oracle (7.2.2.3).
->I have my logging being done to default 
path($ORACLE_HOME/network/log), as
->no parameter settings in listener.ora.
->Has anybody experienced this?

->TIA,

The file handle listener is using is still pointed at the old file.  To 
fix this you need to stop and start the listener.  This will not affect 
anybody who is already connected.  I'm not sure if a reload will do the 
same thing.
