Hi and thanks for an answer:

I have a Oracle-DB running with archive log set to on. The archive log list says that the next archive log to be archived is 307 while the oldest ist 306.

Does this mean, that I I can delete the archives 1 to 306, because the Db already contains the changes which are in these archive logs? Or does this mean that depending on the db version I restore I eventually need older archive logs to restore all changes up to now?

How do I decide which archive logs I can delete?

Thanks and cheers!
