While executing the below statement :

SQL> create pfile='/mnt/oracle/initARM.ora' from spfile;

I get the following error..

ORA-07391: fopen error, unable to open text file.

Kindly let me know is the syntax correct and what has to be dont orectify the error?

This is not in real time, i heard that pfile can also be created with someother location, so i tried doing so..?

Kindly suggest..

Thanks in Advance...!!!
