Hmmm....I'm using a catalog and don't think I'd want to do that. I think (from experience) if you're using a recovery catalog and run that command from the standby, you're going to risk deleting logs on the primary as well as potentially deleting logs that haven't been applied (what if your managed recovery process crashes for some reason?).

Hi Jack,
In 9i, unless you're backing up from the standby and specify delete all input(which has pitfalls and perils all its own), you're going to have to script something.

Oracle9i ( 9.2.0.8) on HPUX.
Am I just missing it or is there no way to configure a Physical Standby and/or Data Guard Broker to automatically delete archived redo logs after they are successfully applied? I've searched the docs and can't find that it's possible. I also checked to see if RMan could do it - no luck.
Will I just have to cron a script to periodically query V$Archived_Log and generate the rm commands?
Thanks.

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks to everyone. I decided to do something like what I used to do with my 8i Standby - create and run a shell script every hour using the following (called from a cron'd shell script).
