well this is old topic. but wanted to correct a few things.

Backup exec can delete(purge) archive logs based on date. Create purge jobs and see to it that directories (junction points are preserved if all files from a directory are deleted). you dont hv to write a windows script to do this.

As far as netbackup agent is concerned, it is used alongwith ebu/rman to backup/restore files, so it is needed for oracle hot backups. for colds it is optional. if you want cold w/o agent then you could write a script to shutdown and then use bpbackup to send the oracle files to tape.

btw i havnt found a purge job feature in netbackup.
