************************************************************************
You have following choices to free up space from recovery area:
1. Consider changing RMAN RETENTION POLICY. If you are using Data Guard,
then consider changing RMAN ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY.
2. Back up files to tertiary device such as tape using RMAN
BACKUP RECOVERY AREA command.
3. Add disk space and increase db_recovery_file_dest_size parameter to
reflect the new space.
4. Delete unnecessary files using RMAN DELETE command. If an operating
system command was used to delete files, then use RMAN CROSSCHECK and
DELETE EXPIRED commands.

Review your backup retention policy and if required change the RMAN RETENTION POLICY

RMAN>CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 7 DAYS;


- If RMAN is not part of backup strategy and archivelogs are going to FRA then manual intervention required for deletion of archivelogs. Periodically purse old archivelogs


RMAN>Delete archivelog all completed before 'SYSDATE-7';

Do you really want to delete the above objects (enter YES or NO)? yes
