Hi Veeresh,
I am trying to execute a job for every 2 minutes and below is the Job.It is executed only first time and after that it does not execute.
Can you please suggest what could be the problem?
DBMS_SCHEDULER.CREATE_JOB(job_name => 'SAMPLE_STORE_PROCEDURE_'||V_FROM_RNUM||'_'||V_TO_RNUM,
job_type => 'STORED_PROCEDURE',
JOB_ACTION => 'TEST_PROC',
number_of_arguments => 2,
start_date => SYSDATE,
repeat_interval => 'freq=minutely; interval=2;',
end_date => SYSDATE + INTERVAL '6' MINUTE,
enabled => FALSE,
comments => 'Executed for Rownum Between '||V_FROM_RNUM||' AND '|| V_TO_RNUM );
DBMS_SCHEDULER.SET_JOB_ARGUMENT_VALUE(job_name => 'SAMPLE_STORE_PROCEDURE_'||V_FROM_RNUM||'_'||V_TO_RNUM,argument_position => 1,argument_value => V_FROM_RNUM);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.SET_JOB_ARGUMENT_VALUE(job_name => 'SAMPLE_STORE_PROCEDURE_'||V_FROM_RNUM||'_'||V_TO_RNUM,argument_position => 2,argument_value => V_TO_RNUM);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.ENABLE('SAMPLE_STORE_PROCEDURE_'||V_FROM_RNUM||'_'||V_TO_RNUM);
DBMS_SCHEDULER.RUN_JOB('SAMPLE_STORE_PROCEDURE_'||V_FROM_RNUM||'_'||V_TO_RNUM);
Thanks,
