As a review, the dbms_job.submit
procedure accepts three
parameters, the name of the job
to submit, the start time for
the job, and the interval to
execute the job:
dbms_job.submit(
what=>'statspack_alert.sql;',
next_date=>sysdate+1/24,
-- start next hour
interval=>'sysdate+1/24');
-- Run every hour
The problem with this dbms_job procedure
is that while we specify the
initial start time and
re-execution interval, we do not
see a mechanism for running the
job during predetermined hours
during the day. For example,
how do we use dbms_job to start a job at 8:00
AM, run it hourly, and then stop
at 5:00 PM?
The example about will use dbms_job to schedule
the job to run hourly, but to
get time intervals, it is
necessary to create two other
jobs, one to break the job at
5:00 PM and another to un-break
the job the following morning at
8:00 AM.
For advanced scheduling purposes
we can create customized
job intervals using dbms_job such that start and
stop at specified intervals.
Here are some working Oracle dbms_job scheduling frequency
examples:
The
following examples show how to
use these procedures to schedule
the my_job_proc procedure to run
immediately, then once every
hour after that:
BEGIN
DBMS_JOB.isubmit (
job => 99,
what => 'my_job_proc(''DBMS_JOB.ISUBMIT
Example.'');',
next_date => SYSDATE,
interval => 'SYSDATE + 1/24 /* 1
Hour */');
COMMIT;
END;
