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.
Regards

What is released job and scheduled job?

Hi BW experts,
Please let me know what is released job and scheduled job?

Hi
Released job:The job has been fully defined, including a start condition. Without a start condition, a job cannot be released.
Only an administrator or a user with appropriate authorizations for background processing can release a job, preventing unauthorized users from running jobs without approval.
scheduled job: The job which is scheduled for a particular time and that will come into the queue of jobs to which time it is scheduled.
U can see these jobs in SM37 tcode

Analytical snapshots and scheduled jobs

Hello,
for extended analytical reports we need to make the snapshots of our statistic datas every day.
There is an option of doing snapshots of the Project in Project Management, but we need to have snapshots of our own BO's or data sources. Is there any possibility to do this?
In case snapshots can't be done by the system we also would perform it in coding, by creating business objects with required datas and saving them. But we need to do the saving automatically (regularly).
In Project Management it is also possible to run scheduled snapshots. How can we schedule jobs (it would be enough if we could execute an action which saves our datas at scheduled time)?
We have found only "Mass Data Run Process" in this context but the MDR's can be done only for the special standard Floorplans, aren't they?
Best regards,
Leonid Granatstein.

Hi,
currently it is not possible to create snapshots for partner BO content by a standard process.
Also defining a mass data run object, which you could schedule and where you could implement the snapshot by yourself, is not available for partners yet. So we have no standard mechanism available to get your task done with the use of the current implementation possibilities.
The only option I see is that you develop the snapshot activity on your own in ByD studio.
To trigger the snapshot activity on a regular basis, I only see the option to trigger this from outside. An option would be to define a web service or an XML file upload.
You could write for example a small program ( by using PHP or .NET) on a PC which runs on a regular basis and which uploads an XML file or calls a web service. This then triggers the snapshot activity you have programmed in ByD Studio.
I hope this helps.

Thomas

Launchd and scheduled jobs

From what I've read, you can't rely on launchd for scheduled jobs - in my case I want to back up at 3am in the morning - upon it being woken by another application.
Now that cron is disabled - how can I achieve this scheduled tasks?
I cannot believe that Apple have released into production a component that simply does not work ( that relies on the machine being on 100% without sleeping etc ).

Hi Stewart:
I can't speak to 10.4.3, but in 10.4.2, I just rebuilt my /etc/crontab file the way I wanted it, because cron still is a part of 10.4.2, and my Mac stays on 24x7.
Looking at the "OEM" version of Tiger's crontab, it appears that what they did was basically make a crontab file full of comment lines, so I guess when cron parsed it, there was nothing there telling cron that it had to launch something.
So, if you make a bonafide crontab file, I think (in 10.4.3) you'll be okay. If you don't recall the format for the crontab file, or don't have access to an old legacy one from 10.2 or so (I never had 10.3 so don't know whether they used cron or launchd), I can post mine here, if you'd like, that you could use as a model. I'll check back sometime later this week and see if you'd like me to post it here.
Anyhow, after I made a new crontab file, I had asked on this forum how to disable the launchd daily/weekly/monthly stuff. Although it isn't important to do so, I figured, why run it more often than once daily/weekly/monthly, at what I understood would be random times of day, if the jobs would even be run at all, based on all the reports about undesired behavior caused by reboot, sleep, etc.?
Some smart person on this forum told me that I could take the three com.apple.periodic-daily/weekly/monthly.plist files and save them off somewhere else other than in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons. So I just tarballed 'em (tar -cvvvzf com.apple.periodic-\*.plist.tgz com.apple.periodic-monthly.plist com.apple.periodic-weekly.plist com.apple.periodic-daily.plist) and left the tarball right there in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons, then deleted the originals. If I ever need 'em again I can just "tar -xvvvzf com.apple.periodic-\*.plist.tgz".
So as near as I can tell, I don't even have to fuss about whether the daily/weekly/monthly jobs are being launched by launchd, and as near as I can tell, the daily/weekly/monthly jobs are being run daily, weekly, and monthly, as appropriate, and at the desired times of day, by cron and crontab.

Sqlplus script to disable alerts and scheduled jobs

Hi
We have a painful task after every clone to manually disable oracle alerts (all 1000 of them from alerts -alerts manager responsibility) and also disable scheduled concurrent jobs (again all 1000 scheduled jobs) manually checking all pending jobs.
its ok to have them in prod but not test.
Is there a sql script which can disable ALL alerts and another sql which stops all scheduled request jobs in concurrent requests screen.
Thanks
aj

A similar query is used as part of the document listed above.
There is a need to change two sets of concurrent requests to prevent execution on a cloned instance.
1) Terminate 'Running' Requests
2) Set Pending jobs to 'On Hold'
1) Set Terminating or Running to Completed/Terminated:
UPDATE fnd_concurrent_requests
SET phase_code = 'C', status_code = 'X'
WHERE status_code ='T'
OR phase_code = 'R';2) Place Pending/(Normal/Standby) to On Hold:
SQL> UPDATE fnd_concurrent_requests
SET hold_flag = 'Y'
WHERE phase_code = 'P'
AND status_code in ('Q','I');

Please help me in creating and scheduling jobs. Its very urgent.

OWB Repository: 9.2.0.2.0
Hi,
I have created a "process workflow" using OWB and deployed it successfully. Now, I would like to schedule this process. I have installed management server and tried to schedule it but all in vain. I am not able to understand anything. I have read "oracle administrator pdf" and couldnt understand anything. Please dont advise me to read any notes or pdf's because I have tried a lot and was not able to figure out the configuration.
I have a target database named "TARGET". I would like to schedule the workflow process I have created. I am not able to understand preferred credentials and how to execute the XML script generated by the "process workflow". Please help me coz its very urgent.
-Aditya

Why dont you try this? I found it after few tries,
In the create job dialog box
under General
for Override Node Preferred Credentials for entire job
username and password should be the NT or Unix
login where your Runtime database Server reside.
under Parameter
for Override preferred credentials
username and password should be of your runtime

Oracle 10G Database Control and Scheduling OWB Process Flow

Does anyone know how to go about scheduling an OWB Process Flow from
Oracle 10G Data Base Control. I knew how to do this with Oracle Enterprise Manager 9.2 but we recently upgraded to Oracle Db 10G and the interface has changed significantly.
Now the interface seems to require a PL/SQL stored procedure to be executed.
Is there a template procedure that is installed with 10G Data Base Control as there was for 9.2 i.e. oem_exec_template.sql?
Thanks! Deadline approaching fast...
Marion

I've used the oem_exec_template.sql successfully with OWB 10.1 and Oracle 10G Database Control, with a little trial and error at first.
I'm assuming that your job execution environment is set up correctly, ie. that you can properly execute jobs via the host agent.
1. Log on to Database Control as SYSTEM, select Jobs from the links at the bottom of the page
2. In the Results section, Create Job, select "SQL Script" and press Go
3. In the General section, enter Job Name, and as SQL Script enter e.g.:
@/u01/app/oracle/owb_oracle_home/owb/rtp/sql/oem_exec_template.sql owb_runtime WF_LOC PROCESS MY_PROCESS , ,
4. In the Databases section, add your target database
5. In the Credentials section, I select "Override Preferred Credentials" and use the agent account (oracle on my Linux system) and db user owb_access (OWB Runtime Access user)
6. Review Schedule tab and submit
Comments on step 3:
- the oem_exec_template.sql script must be installed according to the path specified in step 3, on the database host where the OWB Runtime Repository is located
- owb_runtime is the owner of my OWB Runtime Repository
- WF_LOC is the name of my Workflow Location as seen in OWB Deployment Manager
- MY_PROCESS is the name of a deployed Workflow Process
- the commas indicate that I don't supply any system or custom parameters.
- step 3 is actually a shell command line that is interpreted by eg. /bin/sh on Unix or cmd on Windows, and must obey proper quoting rules. On windows, I had to specify the empty commas as "\," (including dblquotes)

Create and Schedule Job - Problem

hi everyone,
I'm trying to write an Job which I would like to schedule. Function of this Job is to delete all entries older than 1 Month in the table "tabelle1". As I understand, you can put in job_action the procedure statement.
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job (
job_name => 'delete_all_entries',
job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action => 'BEGIN DELETE FROM tabelle1 WHERE last_date < (SYSDATE - INTERVAL '1' MONTH) AND (status = 'processed'); END;',
start_date => SYSTIMESTAMP,
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=WEEKLY;BYDAY=SAT;BYHOUR=10;BYMINUTE=00',
end_date => NULL,
enabled => TRUE,
comments => 'Job defined entirely by the CREATE JOB procedure.');
END;
I get the following error message:
ORA-06550: Zeile 5, Spalte 118:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "1" when expecting one of the following:
) , * & = - + < / > at in is mod remainder not rem

06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause: Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
*Action:
What am I doing wrong?.
Thx in advance!

Hi,
If you want to include a single-quote in a string literal, then use 2 single-qutoes in a row, like this:
'BEGIN DELETE FROM tabelle1 WHERE last_date < (SYSDATE - INTERVAL ''1'' MONTH) AND (status = ''processed''); END;',or use Q-notation:
Q'{BEGIN DELETE FROM tabelle1 WHERE last_date < (SYSDATE - INTERVAL '1' MONTH) AND (status = 'processed'); END;}',As you posted it, the single-quote right before the 1 indicated that the string literal ended there, and that 1 was outside of the qutoes.
By the way,
SYSDATE - INTERVAL '1' MONTH isn't always a valid date (when SYSDATE is October 31, for example).
Use
ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE, -1)instead.

Enabling Recovery and scheduled jobs

We have a job that is scheduled to run every three hours and we have it set up to enable recovery. The job has about 10 dataflows in it. If the job fails and is not corrected should the next run of it in three hours pick up from the point it failed or would it start at the beginning? It appears to be starting again at the beginning.
In some cases the job is not actually failing (i.e. no red X) but we get a warning even though the trace log message is "Process terminated because its parent had died.". There is no error log but the job does stop. I am wondering if because the system does not see it as an error the next run would just start new vs recovering.

Arun - We tried the following test.
A test job has 3 data flows in which 2nd Data Flow does not work as it has authorization issue .
Scheduled a test job where work flows are normal(No recovery unit set) and execution parameter ‘Enable Recovery’ was set . Scheduled the job to repeat every 7 minutes.
First run as per the Schedule ,failed due to 2nd data flow issue.
Second run as per the schedule (2nd Data flow was corrected), Recovered, and started from the failed step that is 2nddata flow.
Third run and Fourth Run as per the Schedule (7 and 14 minutes later) but no dataflows were executed.
It looks like it uses the recovery information from the 2nd run (which completed the first run successfully) and then ran nothing. I would have expected that the job would have run from the first dataflow since the prior job had completed succesfully.
Any thoughts on how we can set this up in an automated fashion so that if a run is recovered and completes successfully the next run will start from the beginning?

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

How to Schedule Job using Database Control for SQLPLUS script?

Hi All,
I am using Database version 10.2. I would like to schedule a SQLPLUS script job using Database control (Not using Grid Control!). The following is the script.
========================================================
define OEM_FRIENDLY=1
define OWB_BACKGROUND=0
set serveroutput on
set verify off
whenever sqlerror exit failure;
define REPOS_OWNER='&1.'
define LOCATION_NAME='&2.'
define TASK_TYPE='&3.'
define TASK_NAME='&4.'
define SYSTEM_PARAMS='&5.'
define CUSTOM_PARAMS='&6.'
alter session set current_schema = &REPOS_OWNER.;
set role owb_d_&REPOS_OWNER., owb_o_&REPOS_OWNER.;
variable exec_return_code number;
begin
-- Initialize Return Code
:exec_return_code := wb_rt_api_exec.RESULT_FAILURE;
-- Run Task
:exec_return_code := wb_rt_api_exec.run_task('&LOCATION_NAME.',
'&TASK_TYPE.',
'&TASK_NAME.',
'&CUSTOM_PARAMS.',
'&SYSTEM_PARAMS.',
&OEM_FRIENDLY.,
&OWB_BACKGROUND.);
end;
exit :exec_return_code;
===========================================================
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.
- Mehul

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 create a job in OEM and schedul it ?

Hi,
in 10g 2, I'm looking in the following documents :

but I can not find any explanation to know how to create a job and schedul it.
Where can I find ?
Thanks.

From Enterprise Manager, click on Administraion Tab, Click on the Jobs link under Database Scheduler. Click the Create button and follow the screens and prompts as required.

Disable scheduler jobs during the database refresh

Chaps,
I have a strange issue. We have certain jobs scheduled which monitor other jobs and when they aren't running, they send emails using utl_smtp to the whole DBA group. All is working fine on Production but the moment we restore the database to QA, and soon after the database is recovered, it sends an email saying the those jobs aren't running..
How do I disable the scheduler jobs ? Can it be done while the database is in mount state ? Or, is there any parameters to do so ?

Hi,
Although you can't disable the entire scheduler, you can disable individual jobs or all jobs in a job class using dbms_scheduler.disable which will prevent the jobs from running (but not stop already running jobs).
It should be straightforward to have a table of jobs that should be disabled and have procedures which run over the table either disabling or enabling them.

Control Center status running scheduled jobs stops when DB is shutdown

I have scheduled jobs in the Control Center of OWB, and the status is "Running" (Green Arrow ->), but everytime we stop and start the database I have to start the schedule job again under Status.
Is there any way to fix this so that when the database stops and restarts somebody does not have to go into the Control Center and restart the jobs that are scheduled?
Thanks

I'm been told that it's a bug in the current version of OWB and to fix this problem we should upgrade to 10.2.0.3.
