I'm novice in administration and find my server running low of disk space. And I checked there are many files inside the archived log directory. After I shutdown the database, can I manually delete all archived log files?
What are the harms of doing this? Is there any info stored in the control file, system.dbf or sysaux.dbf?
Urgent!

If you made a backup of your database and WILL USE archived redo log files further to apply to backup of your database when your database crashes, then you HAVE to SAVE those archived redo log files, which were generated after full backup of the database
If you WILL NOT apply any archived redo log files to the backup of the database, then you can delete them manually
Anyway, it depends on your Backup and Recovery Strategy
