The diagnostic pack earns Oracle a fair bit of money, so that's their
prerogative especially since it's all packaged up for mass consumption. I'm
fine with for charging packaging and automation of a management system - it
creates a market opportunity for someone to do it better. I do find it
bothersome that one has to pay for the diagnostic data itself, such as ASH,
but ASH can be reproduced with S-ASH : http://ashmasters.com/ash-simulation/
It's nice that alerts are part of standard, so metrics must be as well.
Statspack is free, which is awesome so there is not as much need for AWR.
All that's missing is ADDM. Personally I can do without ADDM and it makes
sense for ADDM to be part of the pay for automated diagnostics pack.
