rman expired archives not deleted from ASM

edited May 20, 2020 5:01AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hello guys,

There are many old archivelogs (from 2016) in the ASM storage that for some reason have not been removed and when I run a backup + delete archivelog it ramins. I think because they are not in the catalog anymore.

When I execute a 'list expired archivelog all' it doesn't return any.

How can I be sure I can delete it manually from ASM?

These are the directories in the ASM

ASMCMD> ls2016_05_04/2016_05_18/

Here some of the files inside

ASMCMD> ls -l 2016_05_04/Type        Redund  Striped  Time             Sys  NameARCHIVELOG  MIRROR  COARSE   JUL 01     2016  Y    thread_1_seq_1.262.910984749ARCHIVELOG  MIRROR  COARSE   JUL 01     2016  Y    thread_1_seq_1.349.910986399ARCHIVELOG

Howdy, Stranger!
