Re: Unable to create SPFILE.

I have started with pfile, by changing audit_trail=DB.  startup pfile='file name'.
show parameter audit.
audit_trail=DB
create spfile='location' from pfile;
File created..!!
 but when see the spfile, *.audit_trail='OS';  I was thinking that while you do the create spfile, it is creating a binary copy of pfile matching exactly with pfile.  but this is something unexpected I am getting.  regards - chirag
