Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Job Scheduling Tool
The bug relates to Windows (multi-cpu) machines so cron is no good.
Windows Task Scheduler is your next best option for a freebie. Scripting in Windows is not the most fun but if all you're doing is calling a stored procedure or executing sqlldr then it doesn't need to be overly complex.
Cheers,
Graeme.

Don,
I agree with Joe & Raj. We use cron. We have OEM and are exploring using it for "fixit" jobs. We also use Maestro for NT systems - only because we don't have "privs" to run 'AT' on those boxes.
