This is what I did today. Putting session_cached_cursors into the init.ora and recreation seems to work, since the parameter shows up in v$spparameter. It doesn't make sense to me, that initial values can be defined for some parameters this way and changing them later requires the init.ora file again.

I tried this but it failed with ORA-7393 as I wrote.
