Maybe this is stating the obvious, but make sure you do a COMMIT after submitting the job. - Dave

In 8i I have had bad luck of submitting it at sysdate and they don't fire ...

Once I got burned, I can afford 5 seconds ... if it is that critical, dbms_job isn't the tool for that job anymore.

That shouldn't matter. Look at DBA_JOBS when you startup an instance after it's been down for a while (not that it would ever happen!). All pending jobs (nextdate <= SYSDATE) should be firing, at least as many job_queue_processes as you have in the init.ora.

Also as a practice, I always submit sysdate + 5 seconds instead of sysdate. Raj

Make sure job_queue_processes > 0. Also check job_queue_interval.
