Hi Jurijs, As soon as Oracle knows that archivelog is applied on standby, it marks the space used by archived log as reclaimable. Unfortunately, I also don't know how to make Oracle free reclaimable space more aggressively. But what you can try to do is make a script that will run DELETE OBSOLETE from RMAN at specified periods, so that you are sure that all archived&applied logs are removed.
