A database (SID) XYZ is running, and I like to create a different database. So I use "ORADIM -DELETE -SID XYZ" to delete the service, and intend to use "ORADIM -NEW -SID ABC -INTPWD somepwd -..." to create a new service and then to create the new database ABC by running "create database ABC ...".

My questions will be:

1. Is it correct to use above way in creating the new database ABC?
2. What are the passwords of SYS and SYSTEM for the new database ABC?
3. When creating the service, does it create a pfile called

pwdABC.ora?

Thanks a lot.
