        If we have two archive destination, Will the archive log be
backed up  from both the location for the same file or will it backup
only one archive log file?. We assumed that since we have two archive
location, RMAN deletes the archives even if it is backed up only once.
         


From the doc:

If you specify BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL, then RMAN backs up exactly one
copy of each distinct log sequence number. For example, if you archive
to multiple destinations, RMAN backs up one copy of each log sequence
number-not each copy of each log sequence number. For other commands,
such as DELETE, ALL does refer to every log, even duplicate log
sequences.
