Title: PFILE location in NT

Hi all,

    Isn't that just an initialization file that actually points to the real pfile?(init<sid>.ora)  I know on all of the machines I have built this is the case, Orahome\admin\sid\pfile

Hi Shahid,

Did you specify a PFILE parameter in your startup ?

If not, on NT, the default location for the parameter file is ORACLE_HOME\database.  Your database is using the file in this location.

Hi all,
I have two parameter files in two different directories on the same machine. Is there a way I can find out which parameter file is being used by the database.

One way I tried was to make the changes in one file and see if it takes effect when the database is restarted. but I have more than 52 machines and it will be time consuming to do the same for all machines especially when these machines are on remote locations.

Thanks.
Shahid.
