This is how I have set my archival information in my init.ora file
log_archive_start = true
log_archive_dest = /u09/ora09/PRISCRIPTION/archive
log_archive_duplex_dest = /pharmacy/PRESCRIPTION/archive
log_archive_format = "arch%S.arc"
I have realized that the archive log files in this directory:
log_archive_dest = /u09/ora09/PRISCRIPTION/archive are 50 files
while the ones in this directory /pharmarcy/PRISCRIPTION/archive for the duplex is 180 files.
Can any one explain that?

there are two possibilites --
1. Someone deleted a bunch of files
2. The values of the archival parameters (log_archive_dest and log_archive_duplex_dest ) were changed without your knowledge.
For example, I am testing this right now on my test server, changing these parameters, bouncing the instance etc. and the net result is their are unequal number of files in the two directories.

Is there any backup going on? If so, what had been happening was that you are deleting the archive log files from the directory with the less number of archive and not doing the deletion on the other. If you are using RMAN then you have to delete the files from the other directory too.

No I am not using RMAN. I do a cold backup every evening and I also do export the entire database every evening

O.K on such case do you get to delete the archive log files? If so, you would have deleted on one and not on the other.
Now to be on the safer side, shutdown your database, take a cold backup, delete all the archive logs on both the directories and then start the instance. That shiuld put you back in sync.
