I didnt know that. Can You elaborate ? :)
I cant imagine how its suppose to work, never tried to unset
archive_log_destination_10 which in FRA configuration
points to FRA. Moreover as far as I know the only way to backup FRA is
via SBT channel .

Thats great idea I'll investigate that. Looks like some scripts and
homegrown solution needed :).
