Since I want to use Grid Control does that mean I have to: 1. Install 10g and upgrade database
Yes
2. Install 10g agent
Yes
3. Switch from Database Control to Grid Control I would. DB control only manages 1 DB instance. GC, on the other hand, can manage many instances.

Jeffrey,
install EM Agent 10g (or EM Management Services 10g) is not a pre-requisite for the database upgrade.

You can run Database Upgrade Assistant without EM Agent, the new 10g database will be managed by Enterprise Manager Database Control Console 10g. Enterprise Manager Database Control Console 10g permits to administer a single Oracle Database 10g with a Web interface very similar to EM Grid Control.
EM Grid Control has an architecture very different from OMS. You cannot use EM Agent 10g with OMS, but you could manage Database 10g with the old OMS (with Agent 9i). To use EM Grid Control 10g you must install EM Grid Control Management Services 10g (and create the new repository) and install the new EM Agent 10g on every node to administer.

Bye,
Orlando

Reviewing Oracle(r) Database Upgrade Guide 10g Release 1 (10.1) Part No.

	B10763-02
	On page 3-11 it states:
	When you run the Database Upgrade Assistant, the assistant
checks to see if
	the Oracle Management Agent has been installed on the host
computer. If the
	assistant locates an Oracle Management Agent, select the Grid
Control option
	and select an Oracle Management Service from the drop-down list.
When you
	finish installing the Oracle Database, the database will
automatically be
	available as a managed target within the Oracle Enterprise
Manager Grid
	Control.
	
	1. Does this mean that before I run the Database Upgrade
Assistant, I have to 
	install the OEM Agent so that Grid Control will be configured?
	2. Our OMS repository is 9i right now. Do I have to upgrade it
before 
	upgrading the databases?  If so, how can I do so since above

states it wants the agent installed first?
