background_dump_dest parameter specifies the location where oracle will be placing traces for oracle background processes, typically the directory by default is oracle_home/admin/bdump

following this path if you open up this directory u will find many traces ending with extensions .trc, these trace files related to processes like DBWR,CKPT,ARCH,LGWR indicate any errors that these background processes wud hav encountered while database activity.
