Hello Paula
 From memory. so take with a grain of salt.

log_archive_dest_1                   location=/u003/oraarc/prod/arch
log_archive_dest_2                   location=/u004/oraarc/prod/arch
log_archive_min_succeed_dest 1

I think the problem is with: 'log_archive_min_succeed_dest 1'.

It means that oracle will write to BOTH destinations, but if one is unavailable or full and oracle can write to the other, oracle will write to the other and go on working.
I does not mean that after oracle successfully write the archive log to one destination it will stop and not write the same archive log to the second destination.

In your case:
If u003 and u004 are the same size then they both will become full at the same time.
If u004 has more free space the after u003 is full, oracle will continue to archive logs to u004 and will continue to work.
