You might benefit by learning how to Read The Fine Manual.

3.5.4 Setting Initialization Parameters for Size and Location of the Flash Recovery Area
To enable the flash recovery area, you must set the two initialization parameters DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE (which specifies the disk quota, or maximum space to use for flash recovery area files for this database) and DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST (which specifies the location of the flash recovery area).
