Rman 8i vs 9i question - delete obsolete

In 9i rman I can set the retention policy to whatever I want and delete all obsolete backups based on that setting.

I cannot find, however, a similar feature for 8i rman. Is there a way to set this, and if not, how does rman determine what an obsolete backup is?  

Thanks,  

Rick Stephenson
