rman retention policy set to 'none' yet backupset details being deleted automatically from controlfi

We are using a 'media manager' (in this case EMC networker) to which nightly backups are being sent . This  is working .

I have set the rman retention policy to 'none'

CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO NONE;

I have updated the controlfile to retain more entries (we are not using recovery catalog)

alter system set control_file_record_keep_time=365 scope=spfile;

I am required to retain backups for 1 year .

Every morning when I come in and do a 'list backupset summary' I see that the oldest entry has been deleted and the results of last nights backup has been added .

About 6 weeks of info is being kept .

Howdy, Stranger!
