I posted this answer once before. ------------------------------------------------ How about wrapping this is a script of your choice:
ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME=listener`date +%Y%m%d%H%M`.log lsnrctl set log_file listener2.log mv listener.log $ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME mv listener2.log listener.log lsnrctl set log_file listener.log gzip $ARCHIVE_LISTENER_FILENAME This way, you don't have to stop the listener and you don't loose anything. Remember, in Unix, when you rename a file, any program that has it open still points to it.

I know that this has been posted to the group in the past, but I was unable to find it in the archives at FatCity. Thanks.
