Job execution exceeds Job frequency

Hi,
We have setup DBMS_SCHEDULER Job that is supposed to run every 5 minutes.
During each execution, Complex SQL gets executed.
We found on some rare occassions, Complex SQL exceeds 5 minutes to execute.
Would like to know how Oracle Scheduler (10gR2) handles this scenario:
Let us say we started first execution at 10:00 and Complex SQL is still executing at
10:06. Have few questions:
1)
What would happen at 10:05. Will Oracle attempt to launch second instance of
that query (Frequency=5 minutes) or would it not spawn second instance since
the Job started at 10:00 is still running?
2)
Is there any possible way (or syntax) to instruct Oracle not to start second instance
when one is already running.
Any help or suggestion would be appreciated.
We are looking at improving SQL Performance, however would like to maintain Job Frequency
at 5 minutes
Thanks

I know this type of question has been asked/answered in the last year on this forum but I can't find it right now. The quick answer is
1) Oracle (by default) will not start a second instance of the Scheduler item if it is still running at 10:05. Oracle will wait for the 10:00 instance to finish before it runs the job that was scheduled at 10:05. It will wait up until 10:10 when it will then try to run the instance that is scheduled for 10:10. So this means your first instance could start at 10:00 and finish at 10:08 and then Oracle will start running the 10:05 instance at 10:08. You can limit this using the Scheduler attribute of schedule_limit. The lowest allowed value for this is 1 minute so you can set it and tell Oracle that after 1 minute of waiting on the 10:05 instance to run, give up on it and wait for the next scheduled occurrence (in your case 10:10)
2) See answer to #1.

  • Background Job execution enabled via pro-active monitoring

    Hi community,
    We're interested in CPS Redwood to help us in proactive monitoring of background jobs (Ad Hoc and Periodic) and impacts in system performance.
    The idea would be to have somehow a tool that monitor the number of available working process and system performance. When the system workload reaches a certain level, ex: 95%, this tool would intercept new jobs execution. After this, when the system workload goes down and the resources are free, the system would release all jobs to normal run again.
    Is it possible via CPS Redwood?
    Is there any other way to have something automatic like this?
    Thanks,
    Jose Antonio.

    Hi Jose,
    This is possible indeed using CPS. CPS can monitor various load metrics of your system, then adapt the scheduling logic if thresholds are exceeded.
    In your scenario, you would basically always intercept all jobs, but normally not enforce any limits so effectively that means all jobs still run immediately. If the load is too high, CPS would enforce a limit, so then jobs will be delayed until the load is lower again.
    Regards,
    Anton.

  • Sql Server Agent Job Execution

    Hi All,
    I want to run a sql agent job (one job is execution one package) in such a way that as soon as job1 completes , it should be run again (without any time loss)
    I am folowing Below approach:
    Job 1 has 2 steps , in both the steps I am calling same package to execute . After that on Success/Failure action. I am selecting the same step.it is running in an infinite loop and continue fetching data.
    is there any dis-advantages on the above approach?
    Is there any other approach to achive the Same?
    Thanks in Advance....

    Hello,
    The two-step recursive (on success) technique should be fine.  I would just recommend the introduction of short-circuit”techniques that stops a runaway job in the event of logical issues (the “on failure” action will still catch the general error issues).
    Other patterns that are sometimes used for continual-execution requirements:
    Service Broker (for example, continually watch the queue and act on new messages)
    T-SQL home-grown job that runs in a loop and then executes the job based on some condition – and would require you to check job execution state
    For a continuously running package watching for new files in a folder, one example is detailed in the following blog post:
    Continuously watching files with WMI Event Watcher Task

  • Enable server group in BPC job execution

    Dear Experts
    [Note 1476057 - Enable server group in BPC job execution|https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=0001476057&nlang=E]
    After upgrade, the server group logic will be :
    1, Create a correct server group with server assigned,
        job will be executed in specified server group;
    2, Create a server group without server assigned,
         job will be successfully submitted to BW,
         but will not be executed until server is assigned to the server group;
    3, Incorrectly specify a server group in web admin,
         client will get error message when run package.
    As I understand the group server is defined in BW Server. Where should I specify this group server in BPC. I could not find the parameter in BPC Web Admin - Appset Parameters or BPC Server (.Net Server) - Server Options.
    Appreciate if somebody can help ?
    Thanks

    HI John,
    The group settings in WGM SL and Leopard are different.
    Yes, they are. I booted to my eval copy of SL Server and ran through the settings in WGM, Server Admin and Server Preferences; as you pointed out, all the mail list admin tools I could find are in the Mail service in Server Admin.
    The only thing that may be of interest that I could find is that for the group mail list, the email address for the group is group_shortname@ServerDNSname, not groupshortname@yourdomain (this is in the Mail Services Admin Guide for 10.6). This might explain why your email to the group may have been rejected?

  • JOB execution fails due to Access failure to procedures and views using certificates (encryption)

    Job execution fails using SQLServerAgent account but runs successfully under another windows personal account.
    Both have same security access on server and DB.
    The Windows account is mapped to dbo on the database .
    The package uses procedures and views which are using encryption by certificates.
    Please advice on how to provide security so that job runs from the agent

    Hi Prady26,
    If the SQL Server Agent Service account and the proxy account generated based on a Windows user account have the same permissions on both the SQL Server database and the File System of the server, it may be related to the protection level of the package.
    If the package is set to encrypt with UserKey, the job will fail unless it runs under the security context of the Windows user that designs the package in BIDS/SSDT. You can check the
    ProtectionLevel of the package in the BIDS/SSDT to see if it is EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey or EncryptAllWithUserKey, if it is, re-deploy/reinstall the package and set the package protection
    level to “Relay on server storage for encryption”.
    If the issue persists, post the error message in the job history for further analysis.

  • Job name and Job frequency

    Hi All,
    Can any one help me out in finding the Job name and Job frequency.
    I wanted to know the Job name and Job frequency for eash & every message type specified in particular Partner Type in we20.
    For example:
    Let suppose my partner profile name is some country name like 'INDIA'.Ok. For Partner Name 'INDIA" we have some message type, message variant as Outbound and Inbound Parameters.
    Now,there might be some Job running on background to process these message type.
    I want the exact name of the Job Name and Its frequency.
    Thanks

    Hey
    Please ask the function people what is the business logic they have configured.usually we activate change pointers for any IDOC and as soon as any changes are made for that IDOC,it is triggered.the functional person will tell you at what stage they are posting this IDOC.
    RBDMIDOC is the report which is used for creating IDOC's based upon the change pointers.but there are other ways too in which IDOC's can be triggered,so you would be better off asking the function person.
    Thanx

    Hi,
    When you are logged in to the OS, can you do an "su" to the "scripts" user using this exact password (passwords are case-sensitive) ?
    Also make sure that you have libpam.so located somewhere in $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and that it points to a real file.
    external jobs with credentials use jssu, but I don't think permissions on jssu are the problem here (it should be setuid to root).
    Hope this helps,
    Ravi.

  • Is there a way to generate job execution scripts from the command line?

    The customer is planning to change DI production server configuraiton and needs to regenerate job execution scripts for hundreds of jobs. Their question is - instead of going through web admin and doing it one by one, is there a way to run a batch command and generate all jobs with the same job server information from one repository? I looked at the "al_engine" command but didn't find the options to do so. Did I miss something? This is for a DI 11.5.3 on HPUX.
    Thanks,

    I also suggested that but the customer was so afraid of messing things up that they wanted to find out if there is another way. Thanks a lot for the confirmation.
