Can't you do it indirectly with an 'alter database backup controlfile to
trace' command? I seem to recall that there's a path to the initSID.ora
file there. 'Course, it could be just the generic path...I never tried
changing it to see...

Seema,
There is no way to find that out.
Unless, the init.ora uses ifile option and the file pointed to by ifile
contains all the parameters. In that case you can query v$parameter view to
see what ifile points to.
By default Oracle looks for it in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory.
