Check crontab or task scheduler. Sometimes sysadmins schedule the tape jobs
and subsequent removals, especially prior to RMAN, and this might be a
leftover.

Subject: archivelogs scheduling

 

I inherited a system that I only want for there to be 7 days of archivelogs
kept on the server.    The rest should be backed up and removed by RMAN.
Right now there seems to be several weeks worth of archivelogs and I am not
sure what the schedule is for them.   I looked at the script and it doesn't
seem to indicate how the logs are being removed or what the settings are.
Where else should I look?   Is there a parameter that needs to be alter to
be 7 instead?
