About schedule jobs

Dear All,
I have a scheduled oracle job(10g) which run every day calling a procedure. I did disable the job last 2 days ago. Even it is disable but it calls the procedure when the schedule time
begins. i need to disable the job permanently, so that it doesn't call the procedure. I can't delete it so that i have to enable the job later.
Regards,
Sanjay

Dear Mr. Sanjay Kumar Roy
I am an Oracle Developer and using Oracle Database 11g-R1.
I want to take automatic back-up of my oracle database.
Because I am not a "Database Administrator", so I have no idea about it.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

Scheduling Job in JSF architecture

This may or may not be do anything in JSF architecture. Our application requires a job schedule which will be running on daily basis. The application will be deployed in 10g Oracle app server. Can anyone suggest me how I can go about scheduling job for my application.
Thank you
-Saroj

I guess Kiran is right, what u can do is :
#1) Implement all your jobs as runnable (thread)
#2) either preparea a config file(any XML) which will have entry for each job and time to re-schudle that job, something like this (or use init param)
<JOB>
<Name>com.process.hanlder1</Name>
<Schedule>100</Schedule>
</JOB>
#3) when container is starting(during web appliation servlet initilization) read this information(from XML file or init param) and start all runnable threads,
I think this will solve your purpose very well, just keep few things in mind while doing this ad that is: before starting the same job again(at reschduled time) check wether the earlier job is completed or not(in short think about the job synchornization).

How to schedule job?

Hello All,
i have a few questions about jobs (scheduling jobs)
I want to run one procedure at 7:00 A.M and I want to stop this procedure at 12:30 PM on Daily basis.Is it possible with DBMS_JOB? I don't know how to stop running job at specified time.
I m using Oracle 9i on Linux

Hi,
Your best bet is probably to schedule a second job to run at 12:30pm every day and execute the stop. To do the stop you will probably need to figure out the session and terminate the session (google for stopping dbms_job).
In 10gR2 and up dbms_scheduler (the replacement for dbms_job) can handle this scenario in a much more striahgtforward way (generate an event if the job exceeds a max_run_duration and have the event trigger a second job to snipe the first using a stop_job call).

Is it possible to schedule SQLPLUS script with 6 different parameters? If yes then how can I schedule for monday to friday or only for Saturday and sundays.
Please provide brief steps.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Let me explain to you about scheduler.
You can schedule a pl/sql stored procedure TEST_S as follows...
Begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name=>'MY_JOB',
Job_Type=>'STORED_PROCEDURE',
job_action=>'TEST_S',
start_date=>sysdate,
repeat_interval=>'freq=monthly;BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI',
end_date=>null');
END;
You can also also execute o/s script like .bat or .sh. For this job type should be EXECUTABLE.
Example of converting a .sql script in .bat script...
insert.sql
insert into dept values(50,'IT','LONDON');
exit
insert.bat
sqlplus scott/tiger @insert.sql
Executing now...
C:\Documents and Settings>insert.bat
C:\Documents and Settings>sqlplus scott/tiger @insert.sql

How to schedule job under dbms_job??

Hello,
How would i go about scheduling a dbms job ?? All i have is the schema name and a procedure that i need to schedule. It need to run every night at midnight...i was said everything is ready in the procedure(some partitioning) of tables...i just need to put on dbms scheduler...how would i go about doing that?? schema name is syk2ws and the procedure name is maint....how can i put this on the dbms job ?? Do i need to tweak or do anything with the procedure ??

Hi,
You need to create a scheduler job which runs every night at midnight.
You need to use the dbms_scheduler.create_job call.
You can search online for examples or find Oracle's examples here

Event based scheduler job - 2 events at the same time only 1 run

Hi,
i converted our dbms_job - jobs to the newer package dbms_scheduler.
It is a 10.2.0.4 patch 23(8609347) database on an windows server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64 Edition SP2.
The Jobs(about 130) are nothing special ... only some statistics, matview-refreshes and so on.
For the notification of failed jobs and jobs which run over the max_run_duration i downloaded and installed the job notification package.
The jobs are assigned to different departments and the corresponding developer teams in our company.
I created a notification job for each department and if a job fails we (the database administrators) and the corresponding deverlopers will be informed.
Now i ascertained that only 1 email will be send if 2 jobs of the same department fails at the same time.
The emailer-jobs are auto-generated by the job notification package. I only modified them to look after all jobs of special department and not only after one job. (--> event_condition ... object_name LIKE 'XXX%')
example for dba-jobs(copy of the script output of TOAD):
SYS.DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB
       job_name        => 'DBA_JOBS_EMAILER'
      ,start_date      => NULL
      ,event_condition => tab.user_data.object_name LIKE ''DBA%'' AND tab.user_data.event_type in (''JOB_FAILED'',''JOB_OVER_MAX_DUR'')'
      ,queue_spec      => 'SYS.SCHEDULER$_EVENT_QUEUE, JOB_FAILED_AGENT'
      ,end_date        => NULL
      ,program_name    => 'SYS.EMAIL_NOTIFICATION_PROGRAM'
      ,comments        => 'Auto-generated job to send email alerts for jobs "DBA%"'
    );I thought that a queue is used to manage all events from the scheduler jobs. So i made a test with 2 dba jobs and simulated a failure at the same time but i received only one mail.
So what is happend with the second event? I looked for the events in the qtab(SCHEDULER$_EVENT_QTAB) which belongs to the event queue(SYS.SCHEDULER$_EVENT_QUEUE) and no event was missing.
So i think the emailer job has to run 2 times.
Is anyone able to explain or to find my mistake?
I know that the easiest way is to create one emailer job for each normal job but i think this is a little bit costly because all the arguments are the same for one department.
Thanks & Regards

Thanks for your fast answer.
You are right with the "enabled => TRUE;" part and i only forgot to post it.
So the Job is enabled (otherwise it would not send any mail). Because it is sending one mail i think it is also not necessary to hand over a job_type.
Additionally the job starts a program ... so it is right to set the job_type='STORED_PROCEDURE' isn't it?
And also right ... i already added the agent as subscriber to the queue.
Anyway i think the whole thing do what it have to do. So in my oppinion there are no big mistakes in creating the job or at adding the subscriber.
There are also no problem in raising the events by itself and enqueue them in the scheduler event queue.
There is only a problem when 2 jobs fails (or run out ouf max duration) at exactly the same time.
If i understand it right:
The agent/subscriber will find the "JOB_FAILED"-event for the first Job in the queue and starts the emailer Job.
The agent will also find the "JOB_FAILED"-event for the second Job and wants to start the emailer Job again.
I don't know if this is really the problem but perhaps the emailer-job can not be started in consequence of the second event because ist is already running.
I also don't know if this is a mistake of the agent or of the emailer-job by itself.
I only want that it runs two times (one run for each event). I my case it also doesn't matter which email is send at first.

Question about this job SXMS_REFRESH_ADAPTER_STATUS

Hi experts,
For what is this job: SXMS_REFRESH_ADAPTER_STATUS ?? The SAP people recommend me to schedule this jobs in my XI environment but I check over the internet to find some information of it but I don't find much. Someone can explain me the uses about this job and what are the risk if I use it? if any..
Thanks a lot people!

Hi, Its not to delete the messages, i was searching thru SDN and found this -
the idoc-adapter converts the payload to an idoc and creates an rfc-call in background task. This call is managed by the tRFC schedules, which works in a different task than the xi runtime.
After calling the trfc-layer, the xi-message is completed and there is no chance for the xi-runtime to check if the message was successfully transfered to the receiver system. The RFC-Schedules checks regulary the receiver resources, if one is free the rfc-call is transfered to the receiver system. The report SXMS_REFRESH_ADAPTER_STATUS is scheduled in background task and checks if the calls are executed by the rfc-Scheduler. There is no other technical solution possible here for a faster procession. It is an asynchronous protocol, not a synchronous.
Hope this helps.

Scheduled job does not stop even after the scheduling window closes

We have written custom stats gathering job whose duration has been set as 14 hours in the schedule. This job starts daily at 6:00 PM and expected to complete upto 8:00 AM next day. But the problem is that this job continues to execute even after 14 hours. If we look at the dba_scheduler_job_run_details table, then its execution duration is about 16 - 19 hours daily. We could not understand as why it is not closed when scheduling window closes? Is there any problem with the scheduler configuration?

Straight out of the docs 83 DBMS_SCHEDULER
stop_on_window_close
This attribute only applies if the schedule of a job is a window or a window group. Setting this attribute to TRUE implies that the job should be stopped once the associated window is closed. The job is stopped using the stop_job procedure with force set to FALSE.
Having said that, stop_job with force applies to whether information about the job is gathered - you would have to test, but I believe that the statistics gather will be terminated in the middle of whatever it's doing.
Update: force says:
force
If force is set to FALSE, the Scheduler tries to gracefully stop the job using an interrupt mechanism. This method gives control back to the slave process, which can update the status of the job in the job queue to stopped. If this fails, an error is returned.
If force is set to TRUE, the Scheduler will immediately terminate the job slave. Oracle recommends that STOP_JOB with force set to TRUE be used only after a STOP_JOBwith force set to FALSE has failed.

INSERT in PLSQL loop in Oracle 9i scheduled job has poor performance

Hi,
I have a scheduled job running in Oracle 9i. But everytime it executes the following piece of code, the INSERT process slows down drastically.
-------------------------------typical piece of code having problem-----------------------------------
LOOP
FOR increbkgs IN bookings_cur (in_chr_fiscal_period_id,
allrec.cust_name_string
LOOP
l_num_rec_count := l_num_rec_count + 1;
INSERT INTO SA_PORTAL_CDW_BOOKINGS_INCTEMP
(product_id, territory_code,
global_target_id, service_type,
equipment_deployment, created_date, updated_date,
fiscal_period_id, customer_id,
ship_to_country,
bookings_amount, sams_alliance_id
VALUES (increbkgs.product_id, increbkgs.territory_code,
increbkgs.global_target_id, increbkgs.service_type,
increbkgs.equipment_deployment, SYSDATE, SYSDATE,
increbkgs.fiscal_period_id, increbkgs.customer_id,
increbkgs.ship_to_country,
increbkgs.bookings_amount, allrec.sams_alliance_id
IF (l_num_rec_count = 500)
THEN
l_num_rec_count := 0;
COMMIT;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END LOOP;
All the tablespaces are auto-extend. But we have still tried to increase the tablespace manually from 2% to 30% by adding datafiles. Still the INSERT is slowing down for some reason.
(The same process in Oracle 8i is much faster)
Any hint or guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ambili

commits in loops are great for slowing down things. Actually commits in loops are just about the best way of stalling any 'process' in Oracle.
A much better way is to resize your undo tablespace to permit one single commit at the end of the whole thing. Yes it could be big, but that's the way Oracle works.
If you want more info about this, buy Thomas Kyte's book found at http://apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=10008

Scheduling jobs through dbconsole

Just trying to clear my concepts about automating jobs, my understanding is we can automate jobs through crontjobs (on unix) /taskscheduler (on windows)
The other option is DBMS_SCHEDULER.
any jobs like RMAN backups or sql scripts running should show up in below query(they are not running through Scheduled Tasks (its window box)
but i see few jobs & RMAN backups running on one db but i can't see them in this query, what i am missing?

Orchestration Process Cleanup Task schedule job getting failed

Hi All,
We have an out of the box scheduled job "Orchestration Process Cleanup Task". This job is getting failed with the below error.
"Failed.oracle.iam.platformservice.exception.OrchDataCleanupException:java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException:ora00913:too many values"
This recon take two parameters in which we have given values as below:
Batch size:100
Delete Just One Batch: No
I am not able to find how this job is configured or how it's deleting the values.
Please help me out and if anyone know about the links where I can get the info on this job, it will be much helpful.
Thanks
Ishank

As far as the
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e14308/scheduler.htm#r26c1-t8
is concerned,
Batch Size: Use this attribute to specify the number of completed orchestration processes to be deleted in each iteration.
Delete Just One Batch: Use this attribute to specify the value true or false. Only a single batch is deleted if the value is true. All the completed events are deleted batch at a time in a loop if the value is false.
So, let's try:
Batch Size: 1 (just 1)
Delete Just One Batch: yes (radio button)

What command will be executed when I schedule job via DB13

Hi all,
How do I get what command(full syntax) will be executed when I schedule jobs via DB13?
For example:
- Action: REORG of Tables in Tablespace(s)
- Tablespaces: "WI6#BTABD" is selected
- "Use Temporary Tablespaces" is selected
I think this is a really basic question...
Could you give me some advice?
Thanks in advance,
Ikue

Hi Ikue,
yes, you won't see, what the 'REORG for all tablespaces is doing. But it's not really necessary. Its's simply always the same call
REORG TABLE <tabname> INDEX <primary key> ALLOW NO ACCESS
and optionally the addition USE <tempspace>, if you have selected this option in DB13. And it is called for each table that is located in the tablespace(s) which you have specified.
The 'REORG for set of tables' is quite new. It is available with Basis Support Package 7.0 SP12. Before there was only a job to Reorg a single table.
The REORG for flagged tables is a deprecated job.
If you want to know more about the various REORG jobs and when and how to use them, then you should look at note 431430
Best regards
Ralf

Database shutdown and scheduled jobs

Hi:
We are planning to shut down our server for two days, and would like to know following.
1. We have about 100 jobs scheduled throughout the day. We will shut down the server for two days. What will happen when we restart the server, will same daily scheudle job will execute twice ?
2. Is there any place in OEM where you select all schedule jobs and suspend all ?
3. Is there any place in OEM where you select all suspended jobs and resume all ?
Thanks

Hi,
If all your jobs are running from OEM, then simple solution will be to define blackout period for the duration your server will be out, so when the server comes up then jobs will be started except for the jobs to be run during black out period.

CProjects Scheduled Jobs - Work Process UCP_00_DIA_W0-4 & UCP_00_BTC_W0-4

Hi Gurus
We have an issue whereby batch jobs are being scheduled during the day which when run have a negative impact on system resources.
Our Basis team has identified the following work processes: UCP_00_DIA_W0-4
UCP_00_BTC_W0-4
as being responsible for the issue.
They have further identified that they are scheduled to run after users in cProjects save a project they have been working on.
These work processes appear to kick in as scheduled jobs every 2 hours and run for about 10 minutes.
Does anyone know under what Job Name they would be scheduled under and what there purpose is?
I have tried to run a trace on the cProjects save but have not found anything that leads me to a answer woth this issue.
Many Thanks
Panduranga

Hi Panduranga Kumar,
this sounds very much like the cProjects evaluation that's triggered by saving the project.
You can easily check this if you inspect the customizing of the project type of such a project. There you can find a dropdown list (Check for Threshold Value Violations) that steers if and how the evaluation is started. Depending on the setting made here, such a job can be launched after a project has been saved.
Hoping this provides the pointer you need.
Best regards,
Thomas
