Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> AW: Why it picks the same PFile for both the DBs
Did you check the registry settings for HKLM\Software\Oracle and
HKLM\System\currentcontrolset\services?

Hi Volker,
That is OK. I can even start with STARTUP PFILE = 'appropriate_pfile';
But in this case I am unable to start it using NT Services. That is the problem.
How do I get both the DBs to start by starting the services.
I don't know why suddenly the problem has started coming. All registry parameters seem OK.
I'm clueless. I know I'm missing something very obvious, but what is it?
Regards
Naveen

Before starting svrmgr set the oracle_sid to test or prod
In command window:
SET ORACLE_SID=TEST
HTH

Betreff: Why it picks the same PFile for both the DBs
Hi All,
I know the problem is on NT machine, whereas most of the people in the list
are working on UNIX based systems. Still any pointers will be appreciated. I
have a system with 2 databases, both running on the same server.
DB - 8.0.5.
OS - Windows NT
When i connect thru server manager to TEST, and then issue STARTUP, it
starts up the PROD database using the initPROD.ora file. On querying
V$instance it shows INSTANCE_NAME = TEST On querying V$database it shows
NAME=PROD. So the TEST instance is mounting PROD DB using initPROD.ora When
i connect to PROD and STARTUP, it starts PROD using initPROD.ora On querying
V$instance it shows INSTANCE_NAME = PROD On querying V$database it shows
NAME=PROD. So the PROD instance is mounting the PROD DB using initPROD.ora
Why is it picking up only initPROD.ora? The following registry parameters are set... ORA_TEST_PFILE - Pointing to initTEST.ora ORA_PROD_PFILE - Pointing to initPROD.ora ORA_TEST_PWFILE - Pointing to PWDTEST.ora ORA_PROD_PWFILE - Pointing to PWDPROD.ora ORACLE_SID - PROD Though I can start the DBs easily using STARTUP pfile = 'respective_pfile', but that is not the thing. The thing is that I'm missing something, and also that I cannot start it directly through the services. What am i possibly missing?? Regards, Naveen
