Hello All,
I have the following set in the RMAN configuration on a **standby** database:
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO BACKED UP 1 TIMES TO 'SBT_TAPE';
However even if I don't run a backup (either on primary or standby) the 
archivelogs are being deleted to reduce pressure on the FRA.
Is this the expected behavior on the standby? (Oracle 11.2.0.4)
Thank You!Charlotte
