Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Oracle 8i and Windows 2000 Server
Shum,
There is a registry entry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> ORACLE -> HOME<#> , named ORA_SID_AUTOSTART. When set to TRUE, each time the service is started, the database will be started. Then if your service OracleServiceSID is setup to start automatically upon server reboot then the instance will start as well. If this is set to FALSE or not set the database will not start with the service/instance.
After setup of ORA_<SID>_AUTOSTART=TRUE, then the primary thread spawns ORADIM which starts the database based on the pfile location used upon creation of the OracleServiceSID.

I can disable it but would like to know the scripts.

From what I understand during startup of Oracle, if the ORA_<SID>_AUTOSTART=true then the primary thread spawns ORADIM which starts the database based on the pfile location used upon creation of the OracleServiceSID. If you are looking for more information you will want to file an iTAR as this would be a question for Oracle development.

At the same place where the Autostart registry key exists you will find another key (ORA_<sid>_PFILE) this key value points to the pfile you are looking for.

This is true, the ORA_SID_PFILE parameter is set based on the value of the path entered when creating the instance via ORADIM. Thank you for this contribution.
