    • OS> <ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/init<DBSID>.ora

    • OS> <ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/spfile<DBSID>.ora

  • Windows

    • OS> <ORACLE_HOME>\database\init<DBSID>.ora

    • OS> <ORACLE_HOME>\database\spfile<DBSID>.ora

For example (UNIX):

  • /oracle/C11/dbs/initC11.ora

  • /oracle/C11/dbs/spfileC11.ora

This profile contains the default parameter settings recommended for the SAP system. Copy this standard profile so that you can access the original parameters, if necessary.
