APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The Oracle agent will not truncate source logs after log backup if the archive log destination is set to use a prefix and the source log truncation is set to "Older than a specified number of days" or "Older than a specified number of hours". This problem affects 10.1.7 ifix 2. All older versions of SPP are also affected, but the problem will arise during SLA backup instead of log backup. Affected Versions: IBM Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.x.
Local fix
Change the archive log destination to not use a prefix or use the "Immediately after log backup" option for source log truncation.
