I'm not making myself clear. the init.ora's and select name,value from v$parameter where isdefault = 'FALSE' are all identical except for the instance appropriate values. I spent half the day yesterday verifying that everything is set properly. The only thing that I can think of is that somehow, VMS has become case sensitive in file names. that's the only thing that's the tiniest bit off. on instance has pfile named initSID1.ora and the the second has pfile named INITSID2.ORA. That or the environment is not set properly, but the environment is out of my control or so it appears.
