RMAN initiated backups don't expire according to the configured backup life.
Description
RMAN initiated backups don't expire when the configured backup life is a number of generations (Full Backups).
Cause
Each RMAN initiated backup job assigns new jobID. Those job instances are always "1" and hence those backup savesets don't expire according to number of backup generations.
Resolution
Use duration (Days/Weeks/Years) instead of backup generations (number of Full Backups) for CLI initiated RMAN backups.
