I have been told by Oracle Support that you really don't need an spfile. There is nothing wrong with using the init.ora and that is what we do. = If
you use OEM to make a change to a parameter, it gives you a little box = that
says don't forget to change your init.ora to reflect the change. It = says
nothing about the spfile. I have found out the hard way that sometimes being on the bleeding edge or Oracle's new technology is = counter-productive.
