First You can delete old archive logs from the filesystem. then on rman use the following 
crosscheck archivelog all;
delete noprompt expired archivelog all;

Log into RMAN and run the command

RMAN > crosscheck backup;

RMAN > delete noprompt obsolete;

RMAN > backup archivelog all delete input;

Use only RMAN, commands again depend on your retention.

If you are using rman then it can be done by taking archive logs backup with 'DELETE ALL INPUT' parameter.
It will purge all backep up archive log files after the backup completion.

Hi,


Use the following commands to delete expired archive logs;
RMAN>crosscheck archivelog all';
RMAN>delete noprompt expired archivelog all;

or

you can take archive logs backup with "backup archivelog all delete input" parameter.
It will delete all archive logs after the backup.

When i use these following commands

crosscheck archivelog all;
delete noprompt expired archivelog all;

it give same message

"specifies does not match any archive log in the recovery catalog"


when i executed command

crosscheck archivelog all;

it is give status

"\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\1_341_758982530.ARC"
to
"\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\1_461_758982530.ARC"





is it good to delete archive log files from "\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\1_1_758982530.ARC" to "\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\1_340_758982530.ARC" manually for getting more space ???

please reply

Please post the output of the first command.

Also 
RMAN> list archivelog all;
Then 
RMAN> delete noprompt expired archivelog all;
Please post the last 15 lines of all above outputs.

Cheers

Hi Vaibhav,

If you don't have a rman archive deletion policy or if you don't delete any archive logs from the file system (\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\) then when you issue crosscheck archivelog all; it check and flag on the recovery catalog for archive logs physically present in the archive destination (\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\) . Now if you have not deleted any archive logs from \FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\ then running the next command delete noprompt expired archivelog all; will not have anything to remove from the recovery catalog . so you will get this error message.

Safest method will be to backup the archive logs to a different file system ,deleted it from the file system (\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXX\) then run the rman command which I have explained in my first post.

Cheers

Hi Vaibhav

If you closely check the output of the list archivelog all; all archive logs have status as A. if you follow the my last post when you delete some archive logs from file system the output of list archivelog all; will show you the deleted archive logs status as X means expried . then your delete noprompt expired archivelog all; will complete successfully.

Cheers

\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\XXXL\1_331_758982530.ARC

these 331 files are not showing in
"LIST archivelog all";

but exist

is it good to delete all these archive log files which are not showing in
"list archivelog all"
commands
KanchDev
Hi Vaibhav,

These are the very first archive logs as I can see from the file names and those archive logs can be delete from the file system. Anyway have you accomplished your original concern ( the space issue ) ?

Cheers
