Re: dbms_job failed to execute

Igor,

The database only goes down Saturday mornings for cold backup. I'm doing hot backups the rest of the week. I'm thinking about changing this to only to hot backups since I've read that there is no reason to do the cold, but that is an other thread I might start to iron that out. My guess is that the problem started saturday, but I didn't catch the issue before Tuesday morning. The reason you see all the jobs executed this morning is that I had to run them manually. We have several processes that are depending on these procedures being run. They do not execute on their own.

Hope this makes sense.
