Enterprise Manager offers the following management packs for Oracle Database:
Diagnostics Pack
Tuning Pack
Change Management Pack
Configuration Management Pack
Provisioning Pack
Data Masking Pack
These management packs can be purchased only with Enterprise Edition. The features in these packs are accessible through Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control and Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control, and APIs provided with Oracle Database software.
The following sections in this chapter describe the licensed features for these packs.
The Oracle Diagnostics Pack provides automatic performance diagnostic and advanced system monitoring functionality. You can access the Diagnostics Pack functionality through Enterprise Manager licensed links. The Diagnostics Pack includes the following features, which you can use after purchasing a license for the Diagnostics Pack.
Automatic Workload Repository
Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (ADDM)
Performance monitoring (database and host)
Event notifications: notification methods, rules, and schedules
Event history and metric history (database and host)
Blackouts
Dynamic metric baselines
Monitoring templates
Memory access-based performance monitoring
To determine which links in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control and Grid Control are part of the Diagnostics Pack, do the following from the Enterprise Manager Home page:
Click the Setup link on the upper right corner of the Enterprise Manager Home page.
Click the Management Pack Access link. The Management Pack Access page appears, which enables you to grant and remove access for all the management packs.
For Enterprise Manager Database Control, remove access for the Database Diagnostics Pack and click Apply.
For Enterprise Manager Grid Control, remove access for the Database Diagnostics Pack and click Apply.
This disables all the links and tabs associated with the Diagnostics Pack in Enterprise Manager. All the disabled links and tabs are part of the Diagnostics Pack and therefore require a pack license.
The Oracle Tuning Pack provides database administrators with expert performance management for the Oracle environment, including SQL tuning and storage optimizations. The Oracle Diagnostics Pack is a prerequisite product to the Oracle Tuning Pack. You can access the Tuning Pack functionality through Enterprise Manager licensed links. The Tuning Pack includes the following features, which you can use after purchasing a license for the Tuning Pack:
SQL Access Advisor
SQL Tuning Advisor
SQL Tuning Sets
Reorganize objects
To determine which links in Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control and Grid Control are part of the Tuning Pack, do the following from the Enterprise Manager Home page:
Click the Setup link on the upper right corner of the Enterprise Manager Home page.
Click the Management Pack Access link. The Management Pack Access page appears, which enables you to grant and remove access for all the management packs.
For Enterprise Manager Database Control, remove access for the Database Tuning Pack and click Apply.
For Enterprise Manager Grid Control, remove access for the Database Tuning Pack and click Apply.
This disables all the links and tabs associated with the Tuning Pack in Enterprise Manager. All the disabled links and tabs are part of the Tuning Pack and therefore require a pack license.
The Oracle Change Management Pack enables administrators to evaluate, plan, and implement database schema changes. Using the Change Management Pack, administrators can investigate and track changes, compare and synchronize objects and schemas, modify schema objects, evaluate the change impact, and if required, undo previous changes. The Change Management Pack makes change management simple and efficient, and minimizes chances for error, thereby reducing the opportunity for data loss and system down-time.
The Change Management Pack includes the following features:
Reverse-engineer database and schema definitions
Capture and version baselines
Compare databases and schemas, or baselines
Copy database objects with data, with a subset of the data, or without data
Update database object definitions (ALTER TABLE)
Synchronize objects and schemas
Evaluate the impact of changes
Clone or propagate application schemas
In order to use the features listed above, you must install the Java console version of Enterprise Manager, which you can find in the /companion directory of the installation medium. The use of this interface requires licensing of the Change Management Pack.
The following licensed pages and links of this pack apply to change management for Oracle Databases.

The Configuration Management Pack for Oracle Database automates the time-consuming and often error-prone process of software configuration, software and hardware inventory tracking, and policy management.
