archive log retention issue

User347578Mar 8 2015 — edited Mar 8 2015

Hello All,

Just thought of checking with you  on the archive log retention .

I have 2 databases which have the same rman configuration

CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 8 DAYS;

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1;

CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' TO 1;

but one is retaining the archive logs of 5 days and other is retaining only the current ones in its destination location .

Archive destination        /db/tmsp1/archive_logs_rman  ( This is retaining only the current one's )

Archive destination        /db/tmsp/archive_logs_rman

( This is retaining for 5 days of archive logs ..)

not sure what the background process is ?

Any expert suggestion is highly appreciable ...

Thanks
