We have primary and standby database. The backups are performed on the primary database.

On the standby database I cannot delete the archived logs through RMAN command

DELETE NOPROMPT ARCHIVELOG UNTIL TIME ='SYSDATE-3'.

On standby server with setting

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON ALL STANDBY;

I get error RMAN-08120: WARNING: archived log not deleted, not yet applied by standby

Then I change to

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO NONE;

I get error RMAN-08137: WARNING: archived log not deleted, needed for standby or upstream capture process

Archive logs are applied on standby.

1) Why none of the above is not working?

Howdy, Stranger!
