Your backup script should be deleting archive logs after they are backed up. With
RMAN, you could do the following, just to backup and delete your archivelogs:
run
{
allocate channel ch1 type disk format '/bkup4/oracle/%d/arc_s%s_p%p_%t';
set limit channel ch1 kbytes=1000000; # Limit sets to 1 Gb.
backup archivelog all delete input;
}
If you're not using RMAN, delete the logs that have been backed up by your script.
If you're not backing them up, you're going to have recovery issues.

Hello Gurus,
Have some disk space issues, so looking for ways to cleanup.
Please confirm that my thinking is correct.
I run the command and example output below:-
SQL> archive log list
Database log mode Archive Mode
Automatic archival Enabled
Archive destination C:\Oracle\oracle.....
Oldest online log sequence 2334
Next log sequence to archive 2338
Current log sequence 2338
I can write a script (Perl) to remove all archive files < 2334?
Much appreciate any input or confirmation.
Regards
