I'm pretty sure you can use database control without these plugins. I think you have to do a custom install and deselect these items. And, if you choose them, it's not a one-time cost of 2k each. It's 2k per instance you manage from that database control. I had a sad day discussing these with my Oracle sales guy.

	I'm doing my first installs of 10g on Linux.  I fired up the URL

for Database Control and I get the message below:          

>>
         

        Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control is designed for managing a single database, which can be either a single instance or a cluster database. The following premium functionality contained within this release of Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control is available only with an Oracle license:          

	Database Diagnostics Pack 
	<cut>
	Database Tuning Pack 
	<cut>
	Configuration Management Pack
	<cut>
	 


	>>

	 
	I've done some search on Oracle's web sites.  I'm not completely

clear on what they mean here. I know that the Diagnostic/Tuning/Mangement packs are normally licensed separately. So does this mean that Database Control includes this functionality with the Oracle database license, or must I license these items separately. If I must license them separately, then I can't really use Database Control without licensing the diagnostic packs. Correct?          

	Thank you,
	Jay
