Removing alert logs and trace files

user645399Oct 10 2011 — edited Oct 21 2011
Hi everyone!

I noticed that in all the oracle databases, the trace files are piling and alert log is growing like anything ....

Thought of making a copy of the trace files somewhere and remove them from the hard disk excluding the most recent ones.

For alert log, thought of making a copy and renaming the current file so that Oracle can create a new one.

Any advice if there are better approaches in handling this?

Thanks in advance.
