delete exipired

If you run CROSSCHECK, and if RMAN cannot locate the files, then it updates their records in the RMAN repository to EXPIRED status. You can then use the DELETE EXPIRED command to remove records of expired backups and copies from the RMAN repository.

delete obsolete

The RMAN DELETE command supports an OBSOLETE option, which deletes backups that are no longer needed to satisfy specified recoverability requirements. You can delete files obsolete according to the configured default retention policy, or another retention policy that you specify as an option to the DELETE OBSOLETE command. As with other forms of the DELETE command, the files deleted are removed from backup media, deleted from the recovery catalog, and marked as DELETED in the control file.

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

–ps:可以简单的认为，crosscheck 会检查更新每个archivelog的物理文件是否存在的状态，用delete expired 可以删除文件不存在而rman备份存在的记录；delete obsolete 是把旧于备份保留策略定义的备份数据同时也更新RMAN资料库以及控制文件，同时也应用于数据文件、控制文件、也有控制文件，是通过CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY  来定义的策略的。

疑问：不知道为什么delete obsolete时，默认会删除早于14天的归档日志？

Besides affecting the data file and control file backups, the retention policy affects archived redo logs and archived redo log backups. First, RMAN decides which data file and control file backups are obsolete. Then, RMAN considers the archived redo log backups (that are older than the oldest data file or control file backup that must be retained) as obsolete.
