RE: dbms_job failed to execute

Magnus,  

When you are saying that jobs stopped executing on Tuesday, does it mean that they were not executed since then?
Your output from dba_jobs shows that all your jobs were executed this morning (probably when your instance was started) and they all are scheduled to be executed tomorrow at different times (probably, as they are supposed to).  

The reason they all were executed this morning right after instance started is that most probably your instance was down at the time when they were scheduled to be executed, and when oracle starts, it checks if it missed to execute some jobs while the instance was down. And if it finds such jobs that "missed" their scheduled time, it will execute them immediately (not waiting for next scheduled time).

I found two trace files with the same time stamp on them. These are the closest to when I saw the problem. Could this have "hung" since the database bounced?
