Use backup database plus archived log. RMAN will issue an 'ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT' internallay and will backup archives again.
>>to gain disk space
using delete input might handle this(not sure. I should check). But i would rather leave it at least untill for next backup. HOw much space are you talking about here? Unless it saves you from a lot more trouble, you no need to worry about it.

Hi ankush_chawla,

it's quite possible to run an rman backup of both the database and the archived log in parallel/at the same time.
You just have to start up 2 different rman processes.

1. rman backup_of_database_files_script &
2. rman backup_of_archive_logs_with_delete_input_script &
Process 2 could be run several times if you prefer.
Or if you prefer you can have one process as stated by Mahesh,
1. rman backup_of_database_with_archive_logs_with_delete_script
But then it will be in serial.

best regards.
Carl Bruhn.
