Just "startup".
If there is a spfile (in default directory of course) then Oracle will take it, otherwise it takes init.ora.

From Administrator's Guide:

Quote:

Starting Up with a Non-Default Server Parameter File

A non-default server parameter file (SPFILE) is an SPFILE that is in a location other than the default location. It is not usually necessary to start an instance with a non-default SPFILE. However, should such a need arise, you can use the PFILE clause to start an instance with a non-default server parameter file as follows:

1. Create a one-line text initialization parameter file that contains only the SPFILE parameter. The value of the parameter is the non-default server parameter file location.

For example, create a text initialization parameter file /u01/oracle/dbs/spf_init.ora that contains only the following parameter:

SPFILE = /u01/oracle/dbs/test_spfile.ora

2. Start up the instance pointing to this initialization parameter file.

STARTUP PFILE = /u01/oracle/dbs/spf_init.ora

Please just search a little bit on documentation for such obvious question.

Regards
Michel
