Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: dbms_job - running jobs every 15 minutes
If a job takes longer than the next scheduled time to execute then I see a problem. Suppose a job runs every 15 mins but runtime is 30 mins, the number of jobs will increase and compete for the same resources. I always use cron (80's kinda of control), and the 1st thing I do is check if the job is running and if it is, I exit and issue a warning email.

Jared, I wanted to ask this question before but just provided a solution w/o talking too much :)
If it's regardless of runtime (it means potentially one job can consume more than 15 minutes to get things done) is it allowed to run jobs concurrently?
In case of positive asnwer, you need 4 jobs. Otherwise in case of more than 15mins runtime you'll face slipped jobs.
