retention policy different for tapes and disks

Hi all,


On 11.2.0.2 RAC DBs with 11.2.0.2 RMAN catalogs and binaries
We used to make RMAN backups on FRA then push them to tape by using backup  recovery files.

We Now have to change the retention policies :

Some Dbs are too big to have more than one day of backup in FRA, and we need to keep at least 30 days on tape.

Can i do it in the following way :

retention policy configured on windows of 30 days
backup full on FRA with keep until time 'sysdate+1'
backup recovery files to tape ( no keep as it is not supported for backups of backup sets)

Howdy, Stranger!
