Hi Onkar,
 
to empty a file in Unix/Windows

Run this "safe" command on unix:
> alert_db.log
> listener_db.log

On Windows you can just run:
echo "" > alert_db.log

But always remember to make the copy of log file.. for diagnosis purpose.

Hi all,
 
Few days ago I had seen one mail containing the method of truncating  a log 
file and setting its size to say few megs without opening it on windows 2000 
but now I don remember the command. If anyone can either forward that mail and 
pass me the command , will be obliged.
