License Authorization Requirement

You cannot use the options, packs, reports, licensed repository views, or Command Line Interface (CLI) verbs described in these chapters without the appropriate licenses. Although these options, Management Packs, or products may be included in product CDs or downloads, or described in documentation that you receive, this does not authorize you to use them without the appropriate licenses.

Showing Management Pack Information

Enterprise Manager indicates licensed links by showing an abbreviation for a pack beside the licensed link. The default is to not show these abbreviations. To enable this feature, do the following:

Access any Enterprise Manager Grid Control page.
Scroll to the bottom of the page until you see a + icon beside the About Oracle Enterprise Manager link on the left.
Click the + icon. The + icon changes to a - icon, and the pack abbreviations now appear beside the licensed links.

For instance, click the Targets tab, click the Services sub-tab, then click a service name. The Service Home page that appears displays SLM abbreviations beside several links. If you click the abbreviation link, a table appears that provides the abbreviations, pack names, target types, and descriptions for all of the packs.

Enabling and Disabling the Oracle Enterprise Manager Packs

You can enable or disable the functionality for most packs in the Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Console using the following procedure.

Ensure that the version of Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control that you are using is at least release 10.2.0.4.

To check your Grid Control version, log in to the Grid Control Console and click About Oracle Enterprise Manager at the bottom of any page.
Log in to the Grid Control Console as a super administrator.
Click Setup in the upper right corner of the page.
Click Management Pack Access on the left navigation panel.

The Management Pack Access page allows you to enable or disable access for each Management Pack on each listed target.
For each target listed, you can enable or disable the management packs associated with the target. For the target listed in the Name column, select the management packs for which you have access and click the box for that pack. For a new target, click the box in the Pack Access Agreed column to agree to the terms of the licensing agreement. The Pack Access Agreed option is available for selection only for a newly added target for which you have not accepted the terms of the Licensing Agreement.
Click Apply to save your changes.

When you disable a Management Pack, links that are part of that pack will either be disabled or, when a link is clicked, a message will indicate that the associated pack is not licensed for use. After performing the previous steps to disable a pack, any administrator who logs into the Grid Control Console cannot access Management Pack functionality that you have disabled.
