    RMAN - need to delete all backups

    I am out of space from backup but not able to delete all backups. Seems all obselete files are all gone. How can I delete all backups so I can get the space back?
    here are some examples:
    RMAN> crosscheck backup;
    using channel ORA_DISK_1

    backup piece handle=+DG2/rrsdev/backupset/2007_01_19/annnf0_daily_incremental_0.385.612253303 recid=2930 stamp=612253302

    What if I want to just delete subset of it?

    It works. What if I need to delete subset of these next time? Can I just delete certain month?
