Thank you very much Brandon!!

So even if we only installed the DB Control (not GRID Control), we still
need to disable access to the various Packs if we didn't install them and
are not licensed to use them ?

 No - the Diagnostics, Tuning and Configuration packs are separately
licensed products.  It will tell you about this when you first run the
database console.  In my opinion, the Diagnostics pack is the most
worthwhile one and the one that will remove the largest amount of
functionality if you disable it.  You can manage access to the different
packs by clicking on "Setup" in the top-right corner, then clicking
"Management Pack Access" in the menu on the left.  You can grant and deny
access to each pack separately and change the status at anytime.  Note that
the extra licenses are required for accessing the views and procedures at
the command-line as well - not only for the db console gui, e.g. if you
want to run "select . . . from v$active_session_history" then you are
required to license the diagnostics pack.  This is all covered in the online
documentation so check it out for more detail.
