Alternative Archive Destination with Oracle

If, for any reason, the DB or Backup has had a problem und the archive destination is filled for 100% the DB get's in stuck.
DB Administrator will choose an alternative archive destination.
After Backup works again, it only backup the archive logs from that alternative destination but not from origin - it keep filled for 100% and DBA can not switch back...
For that possibility and for "point in time" restore, we need that feature to backup an clean 1st and 2nd archive destination.

    This request may not be delivered within the release currently under development, but the theme is aligned with the current multi-year strategy. IBM may consider and evaluate any RFE Community feedback for this request through activities such as voting. IBM will update this request in the future.

    Hello
    Thanks for your Comment.
    We have installed the newest iFix and we are able to cleanup the "oraarch" directedly after log backup now with that Version 10.1.7.2-20210119B
    Yes we can free up the space but this will not solve the main problem...

    If (for any reason) the backup is not possible to connect to DB (maybe a DR is needed for SPP...)
    After SPP is running again, it could be, that the DB is already setup to second archive destination.
    And for those cases we should be able to cleanup both and to be sure, that restore can handle that with both destinations back to one...

    Kind regards,
    Gerd
