Oracle job scheduling for 2 different timezones

I have a procedure which needs to be scheduled for different timezones based on one of the column in the table (ex: region).
If region is California, it needs to be scheduled at 8:00am, if Newyork at 6:00am.
Any ideas much appreciated!

In my procedure, I populate a snapshot table for all regions.
The procedure includes different inserts into the table per region.
But insert for california should be scheduled at 8:00 and insert for newyork should be scheduled at 6:00am.
Also, the job needs to take care of daylight savings.
So i got to schedule the same procedure to run at 8:00am and 6:00 am.Assuming that you use DBMS_SCHEDULER then if you take a look at the definition of create schedule (or create job etc) then you will find that the scheduled time is timezone aware. eg
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_SCHEDULE (
   schedule_name          IN VARCHAR2,
   start_date             IN TIMESTAMP WITH TIMEZONE DEFAULT NULL,
   repeat_interval        IN VARCHAR2,
   end_date               IN TIMESTAMP WITH TIMEZONE DEFAULT NULL,
   comments               IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);This should then make your jobs timezone (and hence dst) aware.

  • Job scheduling for different slection criteria

    Hi,
    I have a selection screen where user can select eg. say operation 700 or 800 (radiobuttons).
    Now user want to schedule the report as background job.
    Is that I need to create two jobs with two variants ( i.e for two operations 700 & 800)? So that user executes job with respective variant for the operation.
    Pl. clarify whether above steps are of right approach. Also any alternative ways to achieve the same.
    Thanks.
    From
    Reddy

    Hi,
    If user wants to run it as a background job as & when required( The program doesnt have any specific schedule for background execution), then use FM JOB_OPEN, JOB_SUBMIT, JOB_CLOSE to schedule it as a background job.
    If its a periodic job then you will have to create 2 variants & create 2 jobs in SM36.
    Best regards,

  • Backing up Jobs, Chains and Programs in Oracle Job Scheduler

    What is the best way to back up Jobs, Chains and Programs created in the Oracle Job Scheduler via Enterprise Manager - and also the best way to get them from one database to another. I am creating quite a long chain which executes many programs in our test database and wish to back everything up along the way. I will also then need to migrate to the production database.
    Thanks for any advice,
    Susan

    Hi Susan,
    Unfortunately there are not too many options.
    To backup a job you can use dbms_scheduler.copy_job. I believe EM has a button called "create like" for jobs and programs but I am not sure about chains and this can be used to create backups as well.
    A more general purpose solution which should also cover chains is to do a schema-level export using expdp i.e. a dump of an entire schema.
    e.g.
    SQL> create directory dumpdir as '/tmp';
    SQL> grant all on directory dumpdir to public;
    # expdp scott/tiger DUMPFILE=scott_backup.dmp directory=dumpdir
    You can then import into a SQL text file e.g.
    # impdp scott/tiger DIRECTORY=dumpdir DUMPFILE=scott_backup SQLFILE=scott_backup.out
    or import into another database (and even another schema) e.g.
    # impdp scott/tiger DIRECTORY=dumpdir DUMPFILE=scott_backup
    Hope this helps,
    Ravi.

  • Drop/Create sequence using Oracle Job Scheduler

    IDE for Oracle SQL Development: TOAD 9.0
    Question: I am trying to do the following:
    1. Check if a certain sequence exists in the user_sequences table
    2. Drop the sequence if it exists
    3. Re-create the same sequence afterward
    All in a job that is scheduled to run daily at 12:00 AM.
    What I would like to know is if this is even possible in the first place with Oracle jobs. I tried the following:
    1. Create the actual "BEGIN...END" anonymous block in the job.
    2. Create a procedure that uses a dynamic SQL string using the same "BEGIN...END" block that drops and recreates the sequence using the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE commands
    But I have failed on all accounts. It always produces some sort of authorization error which leads me to believe that DDL statements cannot be executed using jobs, only DML statements.
    BTW, by oracle jobs, I mean the SYS.DBMS_JOBS.SUBMIT object, not the job scheduler.
    Please do not ask me why I need to drop and recreate the sequence. It's just a business requirement that my clients gave me. I just want to know if it can be done using jobs. If not, I would like to know if there are any work-arounds possible.
    Thank you.

    Please do not ask me why I need to drop and recreate the sequence. It's just a business requirement that my clients gave me. I just want to know if it can be done using jobs. If not, I would like to know if there are any work-arounds possible.Well, I won't ask you then, but can you ask your clients why on earth they would want that?
    Do they know that doing DDL 'on the fly' will invalidate the dependent objects?
    Best shot you can give at it is reset the sequence. And you could do it in a job, yes, as long as it's interval is during some maintenance window (no active users).
    Regarding resetting a sequence, you, (and your clients) should read this followup:
    http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:1119633817597
    (you can find lots more info on sequences and jobs by doing a search from the homepage http://asktom.oracle.com)
    Regarding the authorization errors: your DBA should be able to provide you the nessecary privileges.
    But in the end, this is something I'd rather not would like to see implemented on a production system...

  • Window oracle job scheduler and Oracle server scheduler relationship

    Hi Experts,
    We use oracle 10G R4 in window 2003 server.
    From window server panel,we can see OracleJobSchedulerORCAID server is disable. However, I check oracle Jobs from EM.
    I can saw schedule jobs are running in there.
    What relationship is between window scheduler server and Oracle Schdeler?
    As I know we can stop/start window Oracle database serve,r DBconsle EM server and Listener server in window server to control oracle
    .Why window oracle schedule does not affect Oracle schdule job?
    Thanks Experts to explaining?
    JIm

    10g R4 is not an existing Oracle version. 10.2.0.4 is.
    Oracle EM has three different schedulers:
    - dbms_job
    - dbms_scheduler
    - EM's own scheduler. Jobs submitted in the EM scheduler are spawned by the Management Agent.

  • Calculating time for different timezone, problems with daylight savings?

    Hi all,
    I try to convert my locale time to a different timezone (like a world clock does). This worked until Europe got "summer time". Then my time calculation went wrong. I just paste the following coding to give you a quick reproducable code.
    I did a lot of googleing but nothing found so far. Also search here in the forum didn't help me solving it. So now I created a post on my own.
    The output of the Java programm is the following (without the colored comments). I just entered these comments to show you where the calculation is right and where it goes wrong.
    I have absolutely now idea about where the chase the error. I am only guessing with "daylight savings issue".
    Hopefully anybody has a good idea.

    You should not set the time zone on the calendar since you want the calendar based on UTC.
            List<TimeZone> list = new LinkedList<TimeZone>();
            list.add(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/London"));
            list.add(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Berlin"));

            list.add(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Asia/Bangkok"));
            list.add(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Asia/Hong_Kong"));
            Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(); // Regardless of your timezone this holds the number of milliseconds since 1/1/1970 UTC.
            for (TimeZone tz : list)
                SimpleDateFormat formatter = (SimpleDateFormat) DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.MEDIUM, DateFormat.MEDIUM);
                formatter.setTimeZone(tz);
                System.out.println("\n" + tz.getID());
                System.out.println("daylight shift in millis: " + tz.getDSTSavings());
                System.out.println("Is in daylight savings: " + tz.inDaylightTime(cal.getTime()));
                System.out.println(formatter.format(cal.getTime()));
            } I have no idea whether or not this then gives the results you expect.

  • Disabling Report Job (Scheduling) for User

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to disable the ability to schedule report job for certain user?
    I tried setting the permission on the reports, unchecking the "Schedule Report" option. But the user (under BI Consumer role) are still able to run scheduler for all report.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    Is this a Z Report that your are using?
    You can setup a background job in SM36 specifying the calendar and variant, you can take help from BASIS in setting up a spool recipient, I.D  This person will get the output in his/her mail.
