I have an Oracle 12.1 environment and need to keep the archive logs for 24 hours. I tried multiple configurations:
- Subclients (Default and ArchiveLog): Tested with “Archive Delete” enabled and disabled.
- Schedule: Tried “Delete Archive Log” with:
- Older than 1 day and Backed up 2 times.
- Also tested with these options disabled.
Results: The only change occurred when using Older than 1 day and Backed up 2 times, which added the following line:
delete noprompt archivelog until time = 'sysdate-1' backed up 2 times to sbt;
However, the line:
(archivelog all delete input);
remains in the script, and I don’t know how to remove it.
I will try a custom script, but I prefer a Commvault solution. During my research, I found a possible approach using three subclients:
- Default: Full backup + archive logs without deleting.
- Archivelogs: Hourly backups of archive logs without deleting.
- DeleteArchive: Daily deletion of archive logs.
For now, this option is not possible because even with every delete flag disabled, the delete input line remains in the script.
