RMAN backup retention time

$

Dear experts,

 

we want to switch to BRBACKUP backups using RMAN. The backups will be saved on disk.

How can I please set the retention of the backups, so that backups (and archivelogs), let's say

older than 30 days will be automatically purged ?

Using normal BRBACKUP, I have managed this by setting cleanup_disk_backup = 30 and

cleanup_disk_archive = 30 and scheduling the Cleanup Logs job in DB13.

Now after switching to RMAN, old backups are not being purged.

I know that in RMAN it is possible to configure a recovery window (of let's say 30 days) and all the

backups, which are older, are being declared as expired. But even after that it is necessary to schedule

a "delete obsolete" job in oracle.

So, is that the correct way to go, or it is possible to make it with the Cleanup Logs job ? Or

using some other BRTOOLS trick ?

 

Many thanks!
