1- Would anyone please confirm if "database resource manage" comes only with Enterprise Edition or can run on Standard Edition ? 2- How can I set a profile for a user in a way that he/she uses only a certain percentage of the CPU. In other word, I need to have 3 differents profiles for 3 differents users and need to limit each to cpu usage: user1 (profile1): 50 % CPU Usage user2 (profile2): 30 % CPU Usage user2 (profile3): 20 % CPU Usage we ran standard Edition 10g (linux red had 3) Thank you. -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
