Well actually in your case, it should probably read
like this
oradata/*/*/*dbf
*dbf will natually exclude all of the files ending in
dbf.
My Rule of Thumb:
These are basically regular expressions, so if you
couldn't use it in a find or ls or whatever else you
could pass a regular expression to, then it won't work
in the exclude list (with some exceptions, I'm sure).
The more you understand regular expressions the more
flexible the product becomes.
