Hi Team,

We are seeing rman not completely deleting old backup pieces.

Below is retention policy we have set

CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 1 DAYS;

Below we have total 3 days backups , in below scenario RMAN has deleted only 2 backup pieces of oct 20th ( Bolded) below, 3 pieces of Oct 20th still remains in the folder.

Why it was not deleting all the files of Oct 20th.
