Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RMAN/DG - delete *ONLY* archive logs "already shipped to the standby DataGuard database"?
Hi All,
My Oracle-DB is Oracle 9205.
We use RMAN to backup databases and archive logs. Once archive logs are backed up we also use RMAN to delete them.=20 We implement standby using DataGuard.=20 Sometimes RMAN backs up archive logs and deletes them before DataGuard ships the archive logs to stand by site.
Is there any way I can instruct RMAN to backup all the archive logs=20 BUT delete *ONLY* archive logs "already shipped to the standby DataGuard database".
Notice that I did not say delete logs older than "n" time/date...no, I want to delete logs shipped not matter what the date/time is.
Thanks in advance.
PS Please respond directly to me as well as to the list.
