Subject: RE: Database Control vs. Grid Control

 

Thank you Ghassan.  Just a couple more questions in response:

 

1) You recommend not to run GC on the same server with the target DB -
can you please elaborate on why?  Is it just do to contention for
resources, or is there some other reason?  I'm not sure if I can justify
purchasing another server for GC if I already have enough available
resources on the DB server to run both with good performance.

 

2) Regarding licensing for Enterprise Edition, I understand that the EE
database that serves as the GC does not require a separate license, but
I'm not clear on whether the targets can all be Standard Edition, or if
the Grid Control license is only provided as long as your target(s) are
Enterprise Edition - do you know?  I'm still waiting for a response from
Oracle Support on this.

 

Regards,

Brandon

I would not advise you install it on your db servers. use another
machine.


You do not pay the licence for the repository db, and it is an EE (it
has partitioning, ...)
