Purging the DDL Trace File

To prevent the DDL trace file from consuming excessive disk space, run the ddl_cleartrace script on a regular basis.

This script deletes the trace file, but Oracle GoldenGate will create it again.

The default name of the DDL trace file is ggs_ddl_trace.log. It is in the USER_DUMP_DEST directory of Oracle. The ddl_cleartrace script is in the Oracle GoldenGate directory.
