Hi Rajesh/Hans/Mladen,
Thanks for the tips. I am reading the documentations and will follow
accordingly.
I have never used logrotate utility. Is it an oracle supplied tool or UNIX
tool? Could you send the information on how to use it on Oracle Solaris 10
server.

Ashoke,
To add to what Hans posted..you can find syntax and examples using named
listeners in the following MOS documents...
How to Disable Logging to the Sqlnet.log and the Listener.log (Doc ID 162675.1)
How to Rotate or Purge Listener Log Data to Avoid Large listener.log File? (Doc
ID 1457196.1)
Description and Usage of the ADMIN_RESTRICTIONS_<listener_name> Parameter (Doc
ID 272633.1)
Thanks,

Hello Mladen, Thanks for the tips. I will try to use the korn shell. But could
you help me in understanding the following syntax.
The syntax for disabling log_status of a default listener(LISTENER):
lsnrctl set log_status off
Could you please let me know what is the syntax for disabling log_status of an
named listener (e.g listener_phx09db1)
lsnrctl set log_status off listener_phx09db1 -> This doesn’t work

* You don't have to stop logging to remove the logs. Just remove it. Just
do it.
* There is a utility called "logrotate" which was written for just such
things.
* Don't start your script with "#!/bin/csh". That is a very grave style
error. Scripts are started by "#!/usr/bin/env perl" or "#!/usr/bin/perl -w".
C-shell is a nightmare from the past that should be forgotten, especially on
Solaris which supports both logrotate and the full complement of modern shells,
like bash and zsh. Even the old-fashioned Korn-shell is far better than C-shell
monstrosity.
* There is "ardrci" utility which supports "purge" command. I have never
used it on listener.log since logrotate completely satisfies my needs as far as
listener.log is concerned, but it works great on the RDBMS homes and even
allows you clean traces, cores and log entries automatically.
* Did I forget to tell you never to use C-shell?

I am trying to recycle the listener.log for the listener on the database server
