Hi,

On unix (same in NT4.0) and Oracle 7.3.2:

When you mount or startup DB from server manager,specified path to initsid.ora file in pfile=:

svrmgrl>startup open my_db
pfile=/u01/app/oracle/my_db/initdb.ora
or
svrmgrl>startup my_db
pfile=/u01/app/oracle/my_db/initdb.ora

If you omit par pfile Oracle locate initsid.ora in default directory. On unix default location is

/u01/app/oracle/admin/my_db/pfile/initsid.ora

in directory /u01/app/oracle/product/7.3.2/dbs/admin is link on default directory

About param in server manager, when you start svrmgrl type help, or read in manual.
