What are .dbf Files in $ORACLE_HOME.dbs?

485418Apr 30 2008 — edited May 1 2008
It has been brought to my attention that my disk usage on my new system jumped from 22% to 68% last night. The culprit appears to be the .dbf files in $ORACLE_HOME.dbs. What are these files? Where can I go to learn more about them and what to expect of them?

Thanks,

Gregory
