Oracle Archive Logs

[Paul_Abresch]

When a successful backup of an Oracle database has completed...the archive logs are not getting purged or removed, my experience with other backup software deleted or purged all logs older than 3 day's.

Hi,

Please note that Backup Exec currently does not delete archive log files after backup. Please refer to the following technote for more information:

Hi,
I've refered to that link but there is wrote that:
"Backup Exec (tm) for Windows NT and Windows 2000 will not delete archive redo log "
My instalation is seated on the windows 2003 not the NT nor 2000.
So my question is how can I tell BE that it should delete archive log after backup. That database product a lot of archive logs and I'm runnig out of space. Have You some advice for me??
