I ran into this a few months ago. I believe my solution was to set an
archivelog deletion policy and to stop the specific deletion of
archivelogs. "delete noprompt obsolete" should cleanup backups and
archivelogs - you don't need to "delete noprompt archivelog..."
# Starting with 11g, we can configure an archivelog deletion policy.
configure archivelog deletion policy to backed up 2 times to disk;
.
<backup commands here>
.
# Cleanup the backups based on the retention policy.
crosscheck backup;
delete noprompt obsolete;
