The following unpublished bug was filed on this very issue:
Unpublished bug 7172652 V1110 (32) BUGAP IN ADCRI PURGE IS NOT WORKING:
This bug was closed with the Status: 32,Not a Bug.
Solution
According to unpublished bug 7172652 this is expected behavior.
The above expectations are based on a misunderstanding of the ADRCI purge command.
First of all, consider the "new" XML-based alert log. It will get purged by the ADRCI "purge" command if the last record is at least "-age" old.
.
(Also note that the XML-based alert log will split into log_1.xml, log_2.xml and so on when it reaches 10 MB in size. Those pieces will also be purged.)
.
Second, there is the text-based alert log, which is in the trace directory. It does not get partitioned, and it does not get purged.
