Oracle Enterprise Manager Concepts Guide

CHAPTER 4. Job Scheduling

The Job Scheduling services allow you to automate standard and repetitive activities, such as executing a SQL script or running an operating system program. With the job system, you can create and manage jobs, schedule execution of jobs, and view information about the jobs. Jobs can be scheduled on a single node or multiple nodes in the network, provided that the node has an intelligent agent running on it. The topics discussed in this chapter include:

Job Scheduling Process

The Job scheduling process includes:

Creating a job. This involves:

Determining the type and destination of the job.

Determining the tasks of the job.

Determining the task parameters.

Scheduling the times that the job executes.

Saving and modifying a job, if desired.

Submitting a job to the Job system.

Viewing the job history to review the results of the job.

Job Tasks

The Job system provides a variety of pre-defined job tasks, or you can submit your own tasks by executing a SQL*Plus script or running an operating system program. Job tasks are implemented in the Tool Command Language (Tcl) scripts with Oracle extensions to include database specific commands. For more information, see the Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Developer's Guide.

The tasks are grouped by the destination of the task:

Databases, which also include Node tasks

Name Servers, which also include Node tasks

Nodes

Listeners, which also include Node tasks

The task scripts allow you to:

Execute operating system programs or shell scripts.

Execute SQL and DBA scripts.

Perform database administration tasks including, starting up and shutting down Oracle databases.

Start up and shut down SQL*Net Listeners.

Distribute and install software.

Note: For information on the predefined job tasks and their parameters, see "Predefined Job Tasks"

Note: For information on the predefined job tasks that distribute and install software, see "Managing Software Distribution" .

You can combine two or more pre-defined tasks into one job, called a composite job. Composite jobs can contain test conditions based on the success of a task. For example, if a composite job consists of two tasks, starting up a database and then running a SQL script, you can specify that the script be run only if the database was successfully started.

You can create jobs that can be used as "fixit" jobs for event conditions that are monitored with the Event Management System. Fixit jobs cannot be scheduled. See "Event Management" for information on monitoring events in the system.

Note: You need to set up a password file to perform administration tasks, such as start up or shut down, on a remote database. See "Administration of a Remote Database" .

Job Credentials

Jobs are normally run with the user preferences of the administrator who submitted the job. This means that jobs cannot be used to perform functions the administrator could not perform if logged into the machine directly.

Because jobs are categorized by the type of service they act on, the job system knows what credentials to pass to the agent. If the job runs on a node, the job system passes either the user preferences for the node or, if none are specified, your Console username and password. If the job runs on a service, such as a database, the job system also passes the user preferences for the service. For information on user preferences, see the "Console User Preferences" .

Submitting Jobs

The Job system is simple to use because the task of scheduling and managing jobs is centralized in the Enterprise Manager Console. The administrator only needs to submit a job once, regardless of the number of destinations on which the job will run or the number of times the job will be run.

When you submit a job, the Console's daemon process sends the job information to the appropriate intelligent agents on the destinations you selected. The agents are responsible for executing the job on schedule and returning job status messages back to the daemon.

Note: There is usually a slight delay between the submitting the job and the notification by the agent.

To schedule a job, you do not have to connect to the node on which the job will be run. You only need to submit the job to the Console and specify the destinations on which it should run. The destinations can include nodes, databases, listeners, names servers, and user-defined groups that have been created with the Map system.

Note: Jobs can only be run on nodes where an intelligent agent is running. If you send a job to a group, the job is only scheduled on the nodes in the group where the agent is running.

The job system of Enterprise Manager allows you to efficiently run jobs on multiple remote nodes by transferring job information to the agents servicing the nodes. When a job is executed, it is run by the agent on that node, thus minimizing network traffic between the remote node and the Console and daemon. In addition, jobs can be run on multiple nodes simultaneously because there is an intelligent agent residing on each node.

When you submit a job to one or more remote sites, it is possible that any one of those site may be down. If a site or its agent is down, the communication daemon queues any job requests that could not be delivered to the site. Once the site can be contacted, the daemon submits the queued job to the agent.

Job Window

You can view the different pages of job information by selecting the page tabs in the Job window. The pages in the Job window are:

Active Jobs

Job History

Job Library

You can switch between the pages by clicking on the tab of each page. The rows in both pages can be sorted on any column by clicking on the column heading.

The Job window can be hidden or shown by selecting Job in the Console View menu. You can also hide or show the window by clicking on the Job system icon in the Console toolbar.

See Figure 4 - 1 for an illustration of the Job Scheduling window.

Figure 4 - 1. Job Window in the Console

Active Jobs

The Active Jobs page contains a summary of the active jobs on the network. These are jobs that you have submitted to the job system and are not yet completed. Each row is an execution of a particular job scheduled on a specific destination. While a job may execute multiple times, the job listed in the Active Jobs page is the one that is currently scheduled or running. You can use the Show Details menu option to display the details of the selected job. You cannot modify these jobs.

Note: You can double-click on a job listed in the Active Jobs page to view the job details.

Job type is determined by an icon at the left of each row.

A database icon signifies a database.

A computer icon signifies a node.

An ear icon signifies a listener.

A NS icon signifies a names server.

Job Name is the name of the job.

Status of job is one of the following:

Submitted: The job has been submitted to the agent at the job destination.

Scheduled: The job has been successfully delivered to the agent and is scheduled for execution.

Running: The job execution has started. After the job executes, the job execution is displayed in the Job History page. If this is the last scheduled execution of the job, the job is removed from the Active Jobs page. Otherwise, the job remains in the Active Jobs page and has the status of Scheduled.

Pending Deletion: The job has been selected for deletion. When the deletion is successful, the job is removed from the Active Jobs page and added to the Job History page.

Fixit: The fixit job has been submitted.

Fixing: The fixit job is executing. A fixit job remains in the Active Jobs page until it is deleted.

Destination of the job.

Next Execution Time of the job. A fixit job cannot be scheduled and displays Unknown for the next execution time.

Job History

Job History contains a list of previous job activities, such as multiple executions of a job. These are jobs that have been submitted to an agent and have executed successfully or unsuccessfully. This page also listed deleted jobs. You cannot modify these jobs.

Job type is determined by an icon at the left of each row. These icons are the same as the Active Jobs page. See "Active Jobs" .

Job Name is the name of the job.

Destination of the the job.

Status of job is one of the following:

Completed: The job has executed successfully.

Failed: The job execution has failed.

Deleted: The job has been deleted.

Execution Start Time is the time when the job started or was deleted. Because the order of agent notifications may vary, it is possible that the Console receives a completed or failed notification before a running notification. If this happens, the start time displays Unknown.

Execution End Time is the time when the job finished, failed, or was deleted.

Note: You can double-click on a job listed in the Job History page to display the Job property sheet and view the Job Output dialog box, if output exists for the job. If no output is produced by a job, a message displays that states that there is no output for the job. If the output includes only blank spaces, the dialog box is blank.

Saving Job History

You can save the jobs from the Job History page to a text file and clear the jobs from the Job History window. This prevents the Job History page from being overloaded with obsolete jobs that occurred in previous days.

Job Library

Job Library contains a list of the jobs that you have created and saved. These jobs can be submitted to the job system at a later date. This is useful if you want to submit the same job at different times. You can use the Modify Saved Job menu option to modify a job selected in this page.

Job Name is the name of the job.

Job Description is the user supplied description of the job.

Note: You can double-click on a job listed in the Job Library page to modify the job.

Job Menu

The Job menu allows you to create, modify, save, submit, and manage jobs. The menu options are enabled depending the items selected in the Job window. See Figure 4 - 1

for an illustration of the Job menu.

Note: When you submit or delete a job, there is usually a slight delay while the agent processes the request.

Create Job Allows you to create a new job. See "Creating, Modifying, or Viewing a Job" .
Show Details Displays the property sheet for the selected job in the Active Jobs page of the Job window. The property sheet is in read-only format. Active jobs can be removed but not modified. See "Creating, Modifying, or Viewing a Job" .

Note: This action is recommended before clearing the Job History window.

Clear History Clears the jobs listed in the Job History page.

Note: The information is deleted from the repository.

Modify Saved Job Allows you to modify the job selected in the Job Library page of the Job window. The property sheet is the same as the property sheet for creating a new job. See "Creating, Modifying, or Viewing a Job" .

Note: You can also double-click on a job listed in the Job Library page of the Job window to modify the saved job.

Submit Saved Job Submits the selected saved job to the Job system.

Context-Sensitive Menus

If you select an item in the Job window with the right mouse button, the context-sensitive menu for that item appears. This menu is a subset of the Job menu.

Creating, Modifying, or Viewing a Job

When you create, modify, or view details of a job, similar property sheets display. The contents of the Create Job and Job Details property sheets are nearly identical. See Figure 4 - 2

for an illustration of a Job property sheet. The property sheets contains:

General Page

Task Page

Parameters Page

Schedule Page

Progress Page (Show Details only)

Attention: For this release of Oracle Enterprise Manager, you can only schedule jobs with a frequency of more than 24 hours. Do not use Hours and Minutes settings of the On Interval option. Also, the job task cannot run for more than 24 hours.

Attention: When submitting a job that consists of multiple tasks, the agent returns an error of "Maximum string length exceeded" if the the string of arguments that was sent is too long. In addition, the job fails. If that error displays when submitting a job, remove one or more tasks to shorten the string.
