Title: RMAN Script Question

I believe I have an RMAN script syntax error.  The following script works fine:

    resync catalog;
    run {
    allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
    backup incremental level 0
    skip inaccessible
    tag hot_db_bk_level0
    filesperset 5
    format 'data_full_%d_%U_%p_%c.bak' (database);
    backup tag='control_file_backup'
    format 'control_%s_%t.ctl' (current controlfile) ;
    release channel t1;
    }

However, when I change the backup command to include archive logs and remove them after backup, I get an exit status of 1 in NetBackup and some RMAN errors.  Here is the revised script:

    resync catalog;
    run {
    allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
    backup database plus archivelog delete input
    skip inaccessible
    tag hot_db_bk_level0
    filesperset 5
    format 'data_full_%d_%U_%p_%c.bak' (database);
    backup tag='control_file_backup'
    format 'control_%s_%t.ctl' (current controlfile) ;
    release channel t1;
    }

Here is the RMAN error:

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00558: error encountered while parsing input commands
RMAN-01005: syntax error: found "(": expecting one of: "channel, comma, delete, diskratio, filesperset, format, force, include, keep, maxsetsize, noexclude, nokeep, not, parms, pool, ;, skip, setsize, tag"

RMAN-01007: at line 8 column 36 file: /usr/openv/netbackup/oracle_db/hot_database_backup_level0.rcv

Anyone see the error?
