Alert Log files
Neo-bOct 5 2010 — edited Oct 5 2010Hello All,
I am using Oracle 10g and i have 2 questions regarding the alert log files:
1. is there any view to check the location of the alert log file on the db server?
2. i have the below file that was communicated to me, but i am not feeling that it is the log file, i am feeling it is a log about the redo logs, is there anyway to know if the file that i have is an alert log file ? below is only a part of the file since i cannot add all of it here
