Daily incremental backups and archivelog backup files and full backups are not deleted automatically

Hello,

I am doing RMAN online incremental backup testing for a database which is Oracle 10g DB and my RMAN catalog is Oracle 11.2.0.3. All OS are Windows Server 2008. Everything looks good except full backups and daily incremental backups and archivelog backups are not automatically deleted. Archivelog backups looks automatically deleted weekly (not sure why) and for incremental backups and full backups I have to use Windows command script to delete them manually. They are not deleted automatically as desired. By the way archivelogs can be deleted as desired but not archivelog backup files.

my retention policy and redundency policy for backup are all 1 day.

Howdy, Stranger!
