How to force delete archivelogs?

Beauty_and_dBestMay 29 2016 — edited May 30 2016

Hi ALL,

11gR2

OL6

I have a standby database which was destroyed so I disabled it.

My issue is the Primary archivelogs can not be purged/deleted and keep on increasing.

RMAN> delete noprompt ARCHIVELOG ALL completed before 'SYSDATE-12/24';

using target database control file instead of recovery catalog

allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1

channel ORA_DISK_1: SID=1236 device type=DISK

RMAN-08137: WARNING: archived log not deleted, needed for standby or upstream capture process

archived log file name=/home/ARCH/1_29945_898613761.dbf thread=1 sequence=29945

RMAN-08137: WARNING: archived log not deleted, needed for standby or upstream capture process

How do I forced delete them?

Kind regards,
