In technology price list April 2012, this is an extra cost option 'cloud management pack for oracle database ' under Database Enterprise Management.

Grid/cloud control does all these things, it is included in the RDBMS price and it is a very good tool. -- Ilmar Kerm -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
