Well.. I have a 6.2 test server (wanted to learn more about oracle)
running 8.1.6. I found initoraxxx.ora in your location. If it's not
there perhaps something went wrong with the creation of your database.
I believe it's created when the database is setup. The name of your
database is ora1 I presume. When running srvmgr make sure you are
logged in as oracle and have ORACLE_BASE and ORACLE_HOME set.
Btw, in my system it's svrmgrl that I must run startup within. Look for
it under .../8.1.5/bin. Should be in the same directory.
Hope this helps.
