I'm working with Informatica(ETL). I want that scheduler run processes only at working days (it's not always from Monday till Friday).
For example, we have not working days from 31-DEC-2020 till 10-JAN-2021. Or 20-FEB-2021 is working day but 22-FEB-2021 AND 23-FEB-2021 are holidays.
I can generate file with not working days or only working days. Can informatica scheduler read this file(or smt else) to run processes only at working days? Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Now I have on Oracle db table with working and not working days.
Easiest would be
create a session which will read form work-day file/table and compare with sysdate. And produce 1 row if match found else 0.
Then other sessions after first one - if previous row output is =1 then proceed else dont do anything.
So basically first session will ensure if its a workday, session will proceed else it will stop.

I have a requirement in which I need to call a process which sends a perticular message for every X days for a customer till N days.
Basically, it's like the process runs every day fetching the customers into cursor then the process should check when was the last message sent for each customer if it was sent exactly X days before then I need to send the message to those customers.
I can handle this in the process by adding a extra column to track last notification date and refer that for sending. But it will be a performance hit..
So Can any one suggest me if there is a simpler way to handle this .
Kindly let me know if you need clarification on any part
I don't think that would be a performance bump !
If you are adding the a column in the same table , anyway only one query is gonna be executed. So I didn't likely to be a performance bump.
I am the sysadmin for a school, so I'm an IT generalist, jack of all trades, master of none, right? Our student information system runs on top of Oracle 11g. Would like to know how to use logminer to find out, at the very least, when something was changed in the database that shouldn't have been changed.
I have configured a test server to play with, so rest your mind, our production system isn't at risk while I play here.
The server is Windows. I go to a command prompt, type sqlplus / as sysdba.
Execute dbms.logmnr.addlogfile blah, blah multiple times to add the log files.
alter session set NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'mm-dd-yyyy HH24:mi:ss'; so the time stamps tell me more than just the date.
Then I go to the application on my test server and make a change to a student demographic record. I want to find this change using logminer.
I do a select timestamp,sql_undo from V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS WHERE TIMESTAMP > TO_DATE('04-11-2013 11:59:00'); (I made the change just now, around 3 pm)
I get no rows.
If I do the same thing, but with a time just after midnight, I get thousands of rows, as the app has routines that kick off at midnight doing maintenance, like recalculating student's class ranks, for instance.
So why am I not finding the change I made logged? I believe I'm looking in the right log files, or I wouldn't see the activity at midnight.
Though your latest entry is recorded it won't appear in V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS till it has sufficient number of updates recorded. For example, if you do 100 updates, you may get 80. To flush out the remaining 20, you need to have some more updates done so that you can see them again. We had a similar problem where logminer was particularly not showing latest updates especially if they are very few. We had to create a dummy table to create some updates regularly so that logminer is always actively showing the updates and nothing is stored in buffer. In our usecase creating the dummy table was ok, I am not sure if it's ok in your case.
Hi I am new to Oracle Scheduler. My question is - Can we give both repeat interval and event condition in the Schedule object for a single job?
I have this requirement in job scheduling - A job should run at a scheduled time, but only if a certain event has occured.
For eg.
Job1 should run
- at 10 am every day
- but only if same job from yesterday is not running anymore. (This I gonna figure out based on the table entry.) So the event gonna be a cell entry say 'ENDED' in the table job_statuses.
Would be easier if I can give both info in the same job. Else another approach I gonna try is - Schedule the job based on time. If the earlier instance is still running , reschedule the job based on event. But this looks clumsy.
Thanks in advance.

I'd encode the condition in the PL/SQL of the procedure itself. i.e. it runs at 10am every day, but the first thing it does is check if the previous job had finished successfully.
What you could do is create 3 jobs
EVENT_JOB
REPEAT_JOB
ACTUAL_WORK_JOB
EVENT_JOB and REPEAT_JOB just start ACTUAL_WORK_JOB. If that is already - or still - running, you get an error on which you can react accordingly.
I have a PLSQL program with three cursors. This program should run as a job.
The job should run on any day between 1st and 5th of every month. And also between 25th and last day of every month. How to write a logic to run this program?
I would set a database job to run every day and then make a simple if clause at the start of the program to check if it's valid day to run the rest of the code.
Check out the DBMS_SCHEDULER routines.
The new version (v3) of Oracle's SQL Developer has a nice GUI for setting up schedules
I am creating a library system.
When a book is reserved, i want it to automatically change the status back to "Available" in 3 days if the reserved user does not borrow it.
I can create a trigger to fire when the status is changed to "Reserved" but I am lost on creating a job to happen in 3 days and change the status back to "Available"
Any comments, advises and guidance will be greatly appreciated :)
You should first create a procedure to update the column as you want, taking as an input parameter the book id (or whatever else as PK).
In your trigger, call the submit procedure of dbms_scheduler package and define the start date in 3 days time, without redundance, and to run your procedure defined earlier with the :new.bookid as input parameter.
Once the transaction has be commited later on, the job will be submitted. Else, in case of rollback of the transaction the job will be rolled back as well.
Nicolas.
what language are you coding in?
Generally for something like this I write a cron job which would run periodically (once a day before library hours?), do a query to see everything that's been reserved for more than 3 days, and set it back to available.
