Hi, Jared,




I ran your scripts and indeed strange behaviour.



First of all I now tested my earlier statement (never had to work much with
jobs before) and it appears to be incorrect. Interval is evaluated before
the job starts and not after completion (As it says in the manual, that I
have now read). Now the question is where does the 2:28 minutes come from.
My best guess would be that Oracle is trying to reschedule to a point in
the past and errors out on that (should be in your alert log) and retries
to schedule it 1 minute later (won't work either because the interval is
still in the past), then 2 minutes later, then 4 minutes later etc.
doubling every time upto 16 times (According to the manual)
So I guess combined with the wakeup time of your snp process and one of the
intervals you'd end up at the time you ended up with

Any thoughts on how this was scheduled this way?



Schedule a job that takes 10 minutes, set the interval
to run 5 minutes after the first job starts.



Here's the job:



create or replace procedure dummy


is


begin





Here's the submission:



declare


   jobno integer;


begin


   dbms_job.submit(

      job => jobno
      , what => 'dummy;'
      -- provide resolution to the second
      --                midnight        hour of        minute of    units
per day
      --             of current day    day to run      hr to run    ( 1
second )
      , next_date => trunc(sysdate) + ((21 * (60*60) + ( 60*45)) * (
1/(60*60*24)))
      , interval => 'trunc(sysdate) + ((21 * (60*60) + ( 60*50)) * (


1/(60*60*24)))'


   );


   commit;


end;


/



Here's before it ran:


   FAIL


SCHEMA_USE PRIV_USER  LOG_USER      JOB LAST_DATE           LAST_SEC
NEXT_DATE           NEXT_SEC TOTAL_TIME
B INTERVAL          URES WHAT
---------- ---------- ---------- ------ ------------------- --------
------------------- -------- ----------

N trunc(sysdate) + ((2   dummy;



  1 * (60*60) + ( 60*5



  0)) * ( 1/(60*60*24)



  ))




Here's after it ran:



   FAIL


SCHEMA_USE PRIV_USER  LOG_USER      JOB LAST_DATE           LAST_SEC
NEXT_DATE           NEXT_SEC TOTAL_TIME
B INTERVAL          URES WHAT
---------- ---------- ---------- ------ ------------------- --------

09/06/2001 21:57:28 21:57:28        614




N trunc(sysdate) + ((2    1 dummy;



  1 * (60*60) + ( 60*5



  0)) * ( 1/(60*60*24)



  ))



Notice the next run time is 00:02:28 after completion of the first job.
