It's called cron :). Or you could run a shell script that executes then sleeps for 5 mins.

im trying to submit a job that runs every 5 minuts. Only way I can get the submit to work is as follows...

variable jobno number;
variable instno number;
begin
select instance_number into :instno from v$instance;
dbms_job.submit(:jobno, 'statspack.snap;', trunc(sysdate+1/24,'HH'), 'trunc(SYSDATE+1/24,''HH'')', TRUE, :instno);
commit;
end;

i then do:

dbms_job.interval(:jobno,'trunc(sysdate+1/96)';

commit;

my next_date column in dba_jobs is set to 15 minutes in the future, HOWEVER, it doesnt actually run. The time passes, the next_date does not get set again to nother 15 minutes in the future and the job doesnt run.

Ive read the manual. Read metalink. read asktom and Im obvious too stupid to figure this one out.
