The dpdump directory has files created by the data pump export/import utility.
ADUMP:
The adump directory is the area where auditing trace files are stored.
CDUMP:
CDUMP is specifying the core dump directory where all OS error logs (core dump
files) will be placed.
Enter new admin subdirectories:New in Oracle 11g we see the new ADR (Automatic Diagnostic Repository) and
Incident Packaging System, all designed to allow quick access to alert and diagnostic
information.
The new $ADR_HOME directory is located by default at $ORACLE_BASE/diag, with
the directories for each instance at $ORACLE_HOME/diag/$ORACLE_SID, at the
same level as the traditional bdump, udump and cdump directories and the
initialization parameters background_dump_dest and user_dump_dest are deprecated
in 11g.
You can use the new initialization parameter diagnostic_dest to specify an alternative
location for the diag directory contents.
In 11g, each $ORACLE_HOME/diag/$ORACLE_SID directory may contain these
new directories:
A new alert directory for the plain text and XML versions of the alert log.
alert -
incident -
incpkg -
A replacement for the ancient background dump (bdump) and user dump
(udump) destinations.
trace -
cdump -
Oracle now writes two alert logs, the traditional alert log in plain text plus a new XML
formatted alert.log which is named as log.xml.
Prior to Oracle 11g, the alert log resided in$ORACLE_HOME/admin/
$ORACLE_SID/bdump directory, but it now resides in the $ORACLE_BASE/diag/
$ORACLE_SID directory.
Fortunately, you can re-set it to the 10g and previous location by specifying the
BDUMP location for the diagnostic_dest parameter.
But best of all, you no longer require server access to see your alert log since it is now
accessible via standard SQL using the new v$diag_info view:
select name, value from v$diag_info.
