To submit a job in dbms_job package with specific durations

Hi,
Want to set a job to run everyday from 8.00 am to 6.00 pm for every 30 min after that every hour.I want to set this in dbms_job package.The database is 10.2.0.3
The implementation notation used is
variable jobno number;
exec dbms_job.submit(:jobno,'begin procedurename; end;',sysdate,
'case when sysdate-trunc(sysdate)>=8/24 and sysdate-trunc(sysdate)<18/24 then sysdate+30/1440 else sysdate+1/24');
but the error resulted is parameter value not appropriate.

Hi,
Obviously because you have two different interval strings 'sysdate+30/1440' and 'sysdate+1/24'.
(The interval strings are inaccurate, but that's a different story)
The preferred solution in 10g would be to use dbms_scheduler.
A workaround using dbms_job would be to use 2 ancilliary jobs to change the interval of your main job twice a day, calling dbms_job.interval.
Your interval strings will cause the time to drift.
You need to use trunc(sysdate,'HH24') instead of just sysdate.

Is this the correct syntax to submit a job using DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT?

Hello,
Is this the correct syntax to submit a job?
DECLARE
v_job_number NUMBER;
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH;';
v_interval VARCHAR2(1000) := 'trunc(SYSDATE)+1+7/24';
BEGIN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(v_job_number, v_job_command, sysdate, v_interval, false);
COMMIT;
END;
Thanks
Doug

DECLARE
v_job_number NUMBER;
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'BEGIN
PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH; END;';
v_interval VARCHAR2(1000) :=
'trunc(SYSDATE)+1+7/24';
BEGIN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(v_job_number, v_job_command, sysdate,
v_interval, false);
COMMIT;
END;
About your error:
PLS-00201: identifier 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH'
must be declared
ORA-06550: line 1, column 96:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
The problem is that the job cannot find the procedure
(maybe own by an other user). The user who run the
job is not the same as the owner of the package.
Bye, AronYou forget the semicolon after END.
But we don't need here begin - end Block.
So it's OK.
v_job_command VARCHAR2(1000) := 'PREPARE_ORACLE_TEXT_SEARCH;'[b];
As you right mentioned, it is probably problem with owner or typo in the name of procedure.

Schedule a job using dbms_job package

SQL to schedule a job using DBMS_JOB.
variable jobno number;
variable status number;
begin
dbms_job.submit(:jobno, 'x(:status);', trunc(sysdate)+8/24,
'trunc(sysdate)+1+8/24', null);
commit;
end;
It fails and returns the following error ...
ORA-01008: not all variables bound
Is it possible to schedule a job to run a procedure with "IN OUT" parameter? I would appreciate any assistance.
Proc runs if I execute it from command mode and there are no issues.

You cannot pass parameters back from a job-- Oracle spawns a separate session to run your job, so that session would receive any OUT parameters and end immediately after the job finishes. Even if Oracle let you do this, you would lose the OUT value as soon as the job ended.
If you want a job to return a status, you can-
1) Store the status in a table
2) Queue a status message in an Oracle Advanced Queue
3) Use dbms_alert to alert another process

Unable to submit a job when the variable is a composite one

Hi
I was trying to submit a job from dbms_job.submit
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(l_job,
'gitm_goaml_job_proc('||''''||p_wrk_gidamlrp||''''||'),
SYSDATE,
'SYSDATE + (10/(24*60*60))');
Here p_wrk_gidamlrp is a composite type of variable which i have created in a package spec.
when i try to complie the code I receive an error that '|| have not been used properly' But if i replace p_wrk_gidamlrp with a simple data type variable things work fine.
Can you please let me know the reason of this error?
Thanks

About DBMS_JOB Package

Hi Everyone,
I assinged a job using dbms_job package whose interval is after every 5 minutes. But the jobs are not activated i.e, not running. Can anybody explain me to solve this problem.
Thanks
Krishna

Hi, Krishna
Also, you may need to change some initialization parameters in your database.
In order for jobs to be executed, you have to define how many processes will be ready to execute jobs.
You will also have to define how frequently the database checks for jobs (the default is every 10 minutes).
Both values are defined in the INIT<databasename>.ORA file.
Examples:
job_queue_processes = 2
job_queue_interval = 60 (seconds)
The lower the interval, the slower the database. Adjust the number of processes according to the number of simultaneous jobs.
You can check if the values are already defined by the following query:
select name, value from v$parameter
where name like '%job%';If you change the init.ora file, remember to shutdown and restart your database.
Hope this gets you started,
Pedro.

Submitting Oracle job via OCCI using dbms_job package

I am using 10g client to connect to a 9i Database on Redhat Linux AS 3.0.
I am trying to submit a job via OCCI. I get back a jobId, but don't see the job in the user_jobs table or the result of the job being executed.
I am using occi::Statement in the following way :
stmt = connection->createStatement("begin dbms_job.submit(:v1, 'submitJobTest;', sysdate,'sysdate+1'); end;");
// where submitJobTest is a stored procedure
stmt->registerOutParam(1, OCCIINT);
stmt->executeUpdate();
int jobId = stmt->getInt(1);
I get back a job id, but can't find it in the user_jobs. The first time I executed the program, i got back jobId 0, then 1 and so on..
Any ideas? Do I need to use dbms_scheduler package?
Thanks, Nilofer

Good catch!
Had a bug, in that my autocommit was not being set!
Works now.

Why is this??
Where can we get information of the jobs submitted???
If an error occured when running job, from where, which DD View we can get this?

If you submit a job without specifying the NEXT_DATE and INTERVAL, Oracle treats it as a "single execution" job. It is removed from the job queue once it is completed.

Are you editing this job in SQL 2012? Is it wrapping your paths in \"? Like for example does the command line tab on the step look like this:
/FILE "\"D:\yourPathGoesHere.dtsx\"" /CONFIGFILE "\"D:\yourPathGoesHere.dtsConfig\"" /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
That's the problem I had, and I resolved it by recreating the whole thing via SQL Script and getting rid of all those \" things. I think that is preventing SSIS from looking up the precompiled binaries for your Script Task. So you should edit the command
line manually:
/FILE "D:\yourPathGoesHere.dtsx" /CONFIGFILE "D:\yourPathGoesHere.dtsConfig" /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
Please write back whether that helps you. David Dye's answer didn't help me at all.

Running a SSIS package with SQL Job and Linked Server

I have a SSIS 2008 package. In one of the Script task I am calling a stored procedure which is using Openquery using linked server. I deployed this package with protection level as "EncryptWithPassword" and gave a password to the package.
Created a SQL job and edited its command line to include the password. If I login to SQL Server Mgmt Studio with Windows Authentication and run the job manually it runs fine. But when I schedule it then I get an error that "The Communication link to Linked
server failed".
Please help

Hi Vivek.B,
The issue should occur because the SQL Server Agent Service Account or SQL Agent Proxy account under which the job step runs doesn’t have sufficient permissions on the linked server.
If the job owner is the sysadmin fixed server role, the job can be run under the SQL Server Agent Service Account or a proxy account, then please make sure the SQL Agent Service Account or the proxy account has corresponding login on the linked server. If
the job owner is not a sysadmin fixed server role, the job must run under a proxy account. In this case, make sure the proxy account has a corresponding login on the linked server.

Submit Multiple Job Definitions/Job Chains with same Time window/Submit frame in mass

Hi,
We have a requirement to submit multiple Job Definition/Job Chains which are part of common Time Window/Submit frame/Queue....
Ex. We have over 50+ different jobs/job chains which will runs Monday to Friday for every 2 hours on same Queue "XXX_Queue". Instead of submitting each job/job chain manually, we would like to know if we could use any script that can achieve our requirement? since we have couple of other jobs which fall under same scenarios...
We are on M33.104 version. Please let me know if any one has any scripts or alternate way of submitting multiple jobs/job chains in mass.
Thanks in advance!
Nidhi.

Hi Nidhish,
Here is some code to set some stuff on a job:
//Get the partition, for global this is not necessary as global is default
Partition part = jcsSession.getPartitionByName("GLOBAL");
//Get the job definition
JobDefinition jobdef=jcsSession.getJobDefinitionByName(part, "System_Info");
//Get the submit frame
SubmitFrame sf = jcsSession.getSubmitFrameByName(part, "SF_Every_Year");
//Get the time window
TimeWindow tw = jcsSession.getTimeWindowByName(part, "System_Week_WorkingHours");
//Set the start time
DateTimeZone dtz = new DateTimeZone(2015, 10, 18, 15, 0, 0, 0);
//Get the Queue
Queue SystemQ=jcsSession.getQueueByName(part, "System");
//Create the Job
Job infoJob=jobdef.prepare();
//Attach queue to job
infoJob.setQueue(SystemQ);
//Attach submit frame, time window, start time
infoJob.setSubmitFrame(sf);
infoJob.setTimeWindow(tw);
infoJob.setRequestedStartTime(dtz);
//Print out the jobid of the job
jcsOut.println(infoJob.getJobId());
//Submit the job
jcsSession.persist();

Submit a job in background

Hi,
We have a query regarding submission of Jobs in background. If we use JOB_OPEN,JOB_CLOSE in our executable program to submit a job to run this proram with a transaction code and also schedule this job in background using SM36 the what will be the effect?

Hi pankaj,
1. If the program only display some data,
and does not update anything,
then nothing will go wrong.
2. Both programs will run independently of each other,
in background.

Submit background job in APEX -- count on all_jobs return shadow jobs.

Hi, I am trying to submit a job in APEX. The setups are as below:
On Submit - After Computation and Validations
Run Process: Once Per Page Visit
Process:
DECLARE
v_instance_cnt NUMBER;
job_no NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT COUNT(0)
INTO v_instance_cnt
FROM user_jobs
WHERE what LIKE 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh%';
IF NVL(v_instance_cnt,0) = 0 THEN
DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(job_no, 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh('''||:G_BSYS_USER_NAME||''');');
:P3_MESSAGE:= 'Job has submitted. Number is '||TO_CHAR(job_no);
ELSE
:P3_MESSAGE :='The refresh is in progress. Please wait ... ('||to_char(v_instance_cnt);
END IF;
END;
Now, if I run the process, the :P3_MESSAGE message returns "'The refresh is in progress. Please wait ... (5)." . This is due to the count is 5 instead of expected 0.
If I SELECT count(*) FROM dba_jobs WHERE lower(what) LIKE 'pagl_refresh.master_refresh%'; in SQLPLUS, it returns 0. Same result from all_jobs as well.
My suspect is that it returns job counts include those that has been removed before. Yet, how APEX can see this? Does APEX use some special way to look into Job queue?
Please help
Thanks

From the looks of it, the job is being submitted and run - although I would check the elapsed time to see if it's anywhere close to the 20-30 minutes you anticipate. Assuming not, I would suggest that the problem is in one of the following areas:
1. The way in which you are passing in the arguments is not conforming to the expected input format or values and it's therefore not executing as expected.
2. Your process implictly relies on the state of your apex application in some manner, which is not being reproduced within the procedure when the job is submitted.
In the former case, I would check the procedure's specification against the page items types being passed in - you might have to explicitly convert some of your arguments into the appropriate type
In the latter case, well... bearing in mind that we don't know what your procedure looks like and it's therefore kind of difficult to diagnose the problem, you'll possibly need to pass your session information into the procedure as additional parameters and re-create your session from within the code.
