Creating a job

hi , sql developer 4.0.2
i want to run a batch file (.bat) every day , so i did that " scheduler > job(wizard) > job type(executable) > selected the .bat file > when to execute a job(Repeating) >
clicked the edit button for " repeat interval " > in the "every" part , i choosed 1 daily > in the " on week days , i chose the a specific day at the first time , then i tried doing it
another time with no day chose and the two tries failed > i specified a time and clicked "Add" > then accept .> it took me to the original wizard >
i checked the start date check box and specified today's date and same time i wrote above , next > next > finish .
nothing happened .
- the batch file has this command
exp med/med@orcl file=d:\mcp\exported\expdat.dmp
- i tried to run a notepad file .
all tries failed .

The error message
ORA-27300: OS system dependent operation:accessing execution agent failed with status: 2
ORA-27301: OS failure message: The system cannot find the file specified.
indicates that it can not find the file"D:\MCP\Export.bat". Or it could be that the extrnal agent is not running. But I would have expected a different error message then.
To run external files via dbms_scheduler an external agent is used. On Windows systems this should be an extra service (OracleJobScheduler Windows service). Sometimes this service runs with special privileges on your system. Like an extra OS user. This service account needs to have access to that folder "D:\MCP\" and that file "Export.bat". Try to find out how the external agent is running in your system and check if the account that it uses has access to the folder+file.

Error While creating a Job using JOB_OPEN

Hello,
I am trying to create a job in the output type of a standard transaction.
But the job creation is failing. While debugging the transaction in update mode, I found out that the JOB_OPEN is coming out in the 'COMMIT WORK'.
Is there any other way to create a job so that the program executes properly.

Create Background Job after data saved in module

Hello,
I have a program that has a start selection screen with material group, you enter your data, execute. When it has finished you get a ALV of sales order with items where you can make changes to dates and other details and save. I would like to add a save in background option. Is this possible? I assume it would be difficult because of the container.. it uses a bapi to save sale orders...
The employees run this job which takes a little while.. at the end of the day.. they go home and of course SAP has timed out. If they can run it in the background then no problem....
Thanks,
AJ

well, you can pass the data from the same to an other program and submit it in background.

Creating a job and scheduling a job error in OEM

Hi, Everyone,
I am trying to create and schedule a job thru OEM. In the the pl/sql block provide i have given my code like this
begin
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
SPOOL C:\RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.LOG APPEND;
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD/MM/YY HH24:MI:SS') FROM DUAL;
EXEC PAC_RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.CALL_ALL (200910);
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD/MM/YY HH24:MI:SS') FROM DUAL;
SPOOL OFF;
end;
i have created the job and scheduled it but i am getting this error:
Error # 6550
Details ORA-06550: line 2, column 5: PL/SQL: ORA-00922: missing or invalid option ORA-06550: line 2, column 1: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored ORA-06550: line 3, column 7: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "C" when expecting one of the following: := . ( @ % ;
could anyone pls help as this is very urgent.
Thanks in advance

Ah, the problem is you are confusing SQLPlus commands with PL/SQL.
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON; -- This is a SQLPlus command, not necessary here.
SPOOL C:\RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.LOG APPEND; -- This is a SQLPlus command, in PL/SQL to write out to a file you will need to call the UTL_FILE package to open a file for writing to. Except that the file you write to will appear on the database server, not your workstation, when the scheduled job runs.
SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'DD/MM/YY HH24:MI:SS') FROM DUAL; -- In PL/SQL you need to SELECT columns INTO variables FROM tables. But in fact I guess you want to write the time to file using UTL_FILE again. However, you don't really need to do this, since scheduler will log the start time and run duration itself.
EXEC PAC_RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.CALL_ALL (200910); -- This is the SQLPlus equivalent of the PL/SQL command:
BEGIN
PAC_RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.CALL_ALL (200910);
END;
SPOOL OFF; -- This is a SQLPlus command, not necessary here.
So to summarise, all you really need is:
BEGIN
PAC_RFV_PROFILE_REPORT.CALL_ALL (200910);
END;
And the scheduled job will log the start time and duration in the database, which you can find here:
SELECT * FROM USER_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS

Creating a job in schema when can't login in that schema

there is a requirement that I've to create a job in a schema, but i don't have that schema's password,but I've that server's SYSDBA's password,means I can login into SYS account as SYSDBA,
but I've to create a job in that schema.
how is it possible,
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ' DECLARE '||

A desc on DBA_JOBS reveials the first three:
LOG_USER    VARCHAR2(30)                    USER who was logged in when the job was submitted
PRIV_USER   VARCHAR2(30)                    USER whose default privileges apply to this job
SCHEMA_USER VARCHAR2(30)                    select * from bar means select * from schema_user.bar          Perhaps you could try chang_env:
Use the correct NLSENV, below is just an example:
begin
sys.dbms_ijob.change_env( JOB => 3
,LUSER => '<NEW USER>'

Creating a job for a procedure with an input parameter

Hi,
I want to create a job for a procedure ( sp_proc ) with a input parameter.
The input parameter is a date value.
As per the syntax for dbms_job.submit procedure;
dbms_job.submit (
job IN BINARY_INTEGER,
what IN VARCHAR2,
next_date IN DATE,
interval IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'NULL',
no_parse IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE);
How should the procedure be declared in the 'what' parameter of the dbms_job.submit procedure ?
Please guide.
Thanks.

Creating backup Job with DBMS_SCHEDULER

Hello,
Can someone please help me out here:
I'm using Oracle10g release 1 on windowsXP
I'm trying to create a backup job with dbms_scheduler and it's not working.
This is what I did:
I created a job as follows:
BEGIN
dbms_scheduler.create_job (
job_name => 'RMAN_FULL',
job_type => 'EXCUTABLE',
job_action => 'E:\wkdir\rman_bkp',
enabled => TRUE,
start_date => '24-NOV-2007 2:10:00 PM',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=WEEKLY',
comments => 'Full Database Backup');
END;
While rman_bkp is an RMAN command but it wasn't working.
Please where do I get it wrong?
Kindly put me through the EXECUTABLE or should I use PL/SQL_BLOCK and how?
Thanks.
Regards,
Cherish

Hi,
There is a guide to running external jobs using the Scheduler here
Guide to External Jobs on 10g with dbms_scheduler e.g. scripts,batch files
You need to use the full path to a real Windows executable and the arguments to it e.g. for a batch script you would have to do something like
c:\windows\cmd.exe /q /c c:\myscript.bat
There is a forum dedicated to the Scheduler here
Scheduler
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

Creating Generic Job..??

Hi,
Can we create a job which will be used as Generic (LIKE FUNCTIONS IN PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE)..?? Means i will create a job (ex. Taking Backup) and will use the same job (after storing in Job Library) to schedule many instances, with passing Database Instance Name as a parameter.
Many thanks.

The bare minimum for creating a job is Job Name, Agent/Adapter and a command. With REST API, I don't know if creating the job would allow you to inherit the Agent/Adapter from the parent or if you have to explicitly define it.

Creating a Job through scheduler

Hi.....
I need to create a job in oracle through scheduler.
Whether any job is there in bolt which will run every day from Monday to Friday for Every 1 Hour and Run From Morning 6.00 AM to 9.00 P.M.
Job should run
1) Daily ( Monday to Friday )
2) Every Hour
3) From 6.00 AM to 6.00 P.M.
Regards
Yashavanth

Hi,
Try using
repeat_interval=>
'freq=daily;byday=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI;byhour=6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18;byminute=0; bysecond=0'
This should run Monday-Friday 6am to 6pm
Hope this helps,

Creating a job with arguments

Hi,
This might sound really remedial, but can someone explain to me how I go about creating a job with arguments with programs. It errors out when I try to use DEFINE_PROGRAM_ARGUMENTS and when I try to use SET_JOB_ARGUMENTS_VALUE. Maybe it's the order I do it in. Any directions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Tony

Hi Tony,
Almost any internal error is an Oracle bug and you should report this to support.
This is definitely not supposed to happen and I haven't seen this error before, do you have a test case throwing the error ?
Using program arguments should be fairly straightforward. Here's a simple example with two varchar2 arguments
-- create a stored procedure with two arguments
create or replace procedure myproc (arg1 in varchar2, arg2 in varchar2)
is BEGIN null; END;
-- create a program with two arguments and define both
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_program
program_name=>'myprog',
program_action=>'myproc',
program_type=>'STORED_PROCEDURE',
number_of_arguments=>2, enabled=>FALSE
dbms_scheduler.DEFINE_PROGRAM_ARGUMENT(
program_name=>'myprog',
argument_position=>1,
argument_type=>'VARCHAR2',
DEFAULT_VALUE=>'13');
dbms_scheduler.DEFINE_PROGRAM_ARGUMENT(
program_name=>'myprog',
argument_position=>2,
argument_type=>'VARCHAR2');
dbms_scheduler.enable('myprog');
end;
-- create a job pointing to a program and set both argument values
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job('myjob',program_name=>'myprog');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',1,'first arg');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value('myjob',2,'second arg');
dbms_scheduler.enable('myjob');
end;
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

Creating a job that runs a Tcl script

Hi,
We currently have a scheduled job running a Tcl script on a 8.1.7 DB. My question is, can I still use the same setup in 10g DB (i.e. creating a job that runs Tcl script)? If I can, how am I gonna do it?
Thanks,
howie

It depends on how you scheduled the job in 8.1.7 DB.
By Cronjob? Yes you can do the same to connect to 10g
By DBMS_JOB?. Yes you can do it in 10g and in addition, can improve it with DBMS_SCHEDULER
Via OEM? Yes in can use Enterprise Manager to create a Job that runs the Script.

Creating a Job for publication in Sql Server with select statement for passing a parameter

I am creating a job for adding article to a publication. the second step (e.g. for adding article) gives me error. I pass the name of the table as follow:
     EXEC sp_addarticle
           @publication = 'TTB', --THE NAME OF MY PUBLICATION
           'select top (1)' @article = 'Name from TableAdded Order by create_date Desc',
           'select top (1)' @source_object = 'Name from TableAdded Order by create_date Desc',
            @force_invalidate_snapshot = 1;
TableAdded is a table I have in my publisher which contains the name of the newly added table.
I believe it fails because the way I pass the name of the article to the store procedure is not correct. Can anyone please help me on that?
Kind regards
Amin

Yes, the way you add article is wrong.
you may try the below and let us know if you have any issues:
while loop begin (Get the values from TableAdded with status IsAdded=0)
Assign the values to variables like @article = Select top 1 Name from TableAdded where IsAdded=0
Call the sp_addarticle assigning the variable
update the Isadded flag in tableAdded for the name to 1
end while
BTB, Article configuration is supposed to be a one time configuration. Having said, you can easily configure through API. Caution, not sure what are you trying here, for adding new article, you may need to synch the data first in the above approach and should
carried out in the downtime.

Is there any way to create a job in LMS4.2 to configure only switchports matching a specific description

Hello Network Management gurus.
I'm baffled by a lot of new features of LMS4.2 and seem lost where to start looking.
Our client needs to periodically make changes to switches to change their port settings.
They have specific descriptions with a certain string. Let's say the description say "Cisco phone".
The task is to create either template or ad-hoc Netconfig job that will send changes only to those switchports.
How can it be done?
Thanks for your help in advance
Eugene

Thanks, Michel.
I'm almost done except for the task/commands definitions.
This is what I'm doing.
1) Admin -> System -> Group Management -> Port and Module (once I clicked "Port and Module" I'm redirected to Inventory -> Group Management -> Port and Module)
2) I create a group named "VoIP switchport"
3) Then I select the device that I need to configure. It is my switch SW2
4) Then goes Rule Expression:
Port.PortDescription equals "VoIP_Port"INCLUDELIST {:RME:INVENTORY:Port$-1172380997>,
:RME:INVENTORY:Port$-1172380996>,
:RME:INVENTORY:Port$-1172380995>,
:RME:INVENTORY:Port$-1172380994>,
:RME:INVENTORY:Port$-1172380993>}
In human language it say that that the switchport description should be matching the string "VoIP_Port" and it is applicable to 5 ports, they are Fa0/1 through Fa0/5 interfaces of the switch
The fun starts when I try to create a job to push some VoIP parameters to the switchports in question.
I create a new NetConfig job, select "Port based" type job, then I select the device which is a redundant step for me. I expect the job selector is smart enough to select the device based on my "Port and Module" group created previously.
Anyways, when I click "Next" I select my Port group which is "VoIP switchport" and then the next screen suggests to select the task. I assume I should select "Adhoc task". When I add an instance of this task I'm presented with a screen prompting to configure CLI commands. This is where I stopped.
What am I starting with? Should I go to the global config mode first ? If I want to send the command "switchport voice vlan 15" should I just add it in the CLI field? How am I applying it only to the required 5 ports?
If I start the job anyway it fails and the error message is no applicable devices.
