How to schedule Oracle DBMS Jobs in a window

Question

I want to create an Oracle DBMS Job that runs every week day (not on weekends) from 09:00 to 20:00 every 10 min. I wonder if I can do that in the FREQ parameter

Answer 1

You may use this:

begin
dbms_scheduler.create_job (
   job_name           =>  'jb_en_lopes',
   job_type           =>  'STORED_PROCEDURE',
   job_action         =>  'pr_en_lopes',
   start_date         =>  '09-oct-2017 09:00:00 am',
   repeat_interval    =>  'freq=minutely; interval=10; byhour=9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20; byday=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI;',
   enabled            =>  true);
end;

When this scheduler in charge I get the results below :

select * 
  from dba_scheduler_job_log l
 where l.job_name = 'JB_EN_LOPES'
 order by l.log_date desc;

 LOG_ID LOG_DATE                            OPERATION   STATUS

1051594 10-OCT-17 09.59.01.197420 AM +03:00    RUN      SUCCEEDED  
1051592 10-OCT-17 09.58.02.229724 AM +03:00    RUN      SUCCEEDED  
1051590 10-OCT-17 09.57.03.177907 AM +03:00    RUN      SUCCEEDED  
1051588 10-OCT-17 09.56.01.197341 AM +03:00    RUN      SUCCEEDED

Where :

select owner, job_name, next_run_date                                  
  from dba_scheduler_jobs                                               
 where JOB_NAME = 'JB_EN_LOPES'; 

 OWNER    JOB_NAME       NEXT_RUN_DATE

 myschema JB_EN_LOPES   10-OCT-17 08.00.00.194958 PM +03:00

Update :

If you have no access to dba_ views, then consider to replace those prefixes with user_, and remove owner column from the select list for the last query as

select job_name, next_run_date                                  
  from user_scheduler_jobs                                               
 where JOB_NAME = 'JB_EN_LOPES'; 

Answer 2

I don't think this is possible:

Here are some repeat_interval examples that demonstrate the versatility and flexibility of the calendaring syntax:

Run at 10:00 pm daily from Monday to Friday:

FREQ=DAILY; BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI; BYHOUR=22; BYMINUTE=0; BYSECOND=0;

Run every hour:

FREQ=HOURLY;INTERVAL=1;

Run every 5 minutes:

FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=5;

Run every Friday at 9:00 am (All three examples are equivalent):

FREQ=DAILY; BYDAY=FRI; BYHOUR=9; BYMINUTE=0; BYSECOND=0;
FREQ=WEEKLY; BYDAY=FRI; BYHOUR=9; BYMINUTE=0; BYSECOND=0;
FREQ=YEARLY; BYDAY=FRI; BYHOUR=9; BYMINUTE=0; BYSECOND=0;

Run every other Friday:

FREQ=WEEKLY; INTERVAL=2; BYDAY=FRI;

Run on Monday of weeks 5, 10 and 15 every year:

FREQ=YEARLY; BYWEEKNO=5,10,15; BYDAY=MON

Run on the last day of every month.

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYMONTHDAY=-1;

Run on the next to last day of every month:

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYMONTHDAY=-2;

Run on March 10th (Both examples are equivalent):

FREQ=YEARLY; BYMONTH=MAR; BYMONTHDAY=10;
FREQ=YEARLY; BYDATE=0310;

Run every January 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 (Both examples are equivalent):

FREQ=YEARLY; BYDATE=0110,0111,0112,0113,0114
FREQ=YEARLY; BYDATE=0110+SPAN:5D;

Run every 10 days:

FREQ=DAILY; INTERVAL=10;

Run daily at 4:15, 5:15, and 6:15PM:

FREQ=DAILY; BYHOUR=16,17,18; BYMINUTE=15; BYSECOND=0;

Run on the 15th day of every other month:

FREQ=MONTHLY; INTERVAL=2; BYMONTHDAY=15;

Run on the 29th day of every month:

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYMONTHDAY=29;

Run on the second Wednesday of each month:

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYDAY=2WED;

Run on the last Friday of the year:

FREQ=YEARLY; BYDAY=-1FRI;

Run every 50 hours:

FREQ=HOURLY; INTERVAL=50;

Run on the last day of every other month:

FREQ=MONTHLY; INTERVAL=2; BYMONTHDAY=-1;

Run hourly for the first three days of every month:

FREQ=HOURLY; BYMONTHDAY=1,2,3;

Run on the 60th, 120th and 180th days of the year:

FREQ=YEARLY; BYYEARDAY=60,120,180;

Run on the last workday of every month (assuming that workdays are Monday through Friday):

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI; BYSETPOS=-1

Here are some more complex examples which reference the following named schedules:

BEGIN
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'COMPANY_HOLIDAYS',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY; BYDATE=0704,0905,1124,1125,1225;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'JUL4',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY; BYMONTH=JUL; BYMONTHDAY=4;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'MEM',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY; BYMONTH=MAY; BYMONTHDAY=30;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'LAB',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY; BYMONTH=SEP; BYMONTHDAY=5;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'LAST_SAT',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=MONTHLY; BYDAY=SAT; BYSETPOS=-1;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
      schedule_name => 'END_QTR',
      repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY; BYDATE=0331,0630,0930,1231;');
   sys.DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_schedule (
    schedule_name => 'FISCAL_YEAR',
    repeat_interval => 'FREQ=YEARLY;BYDATE=0301,0601,0901,1201;PERIODS=4;');
END;
/

Run on the last workday of every month, excluding company holidays: FREQ=MONTHLY; BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI; EXCLUDE=COMPANY_HOLIDAYS; BYSETPOS=-1

Run at noon every Friday and on company holidays: FREQ=YEARLY; BYDAY=FRI;BYHOUR=12; INCLUDE=COMPANY_HOLIDAYS

Run on these three holidays: July 4th, Memorial Day, and Labor Day: JUL4,MEM,LAB

Run on the last day of the month that is either a Saturday or last day of a quarter:

FREQ=MONTHLY; BYMONTHDAY=-1; INTERSECT=LAST_SAT,END_QTR

Run on the last Wednesday of every quarter of the fiscal year:

FREQ=FISCAL_YEAR;BYDAY=-1WED

Run on the last work day of the 2nd and 4th quarters of the fiscal year (assuming that workdays are Monday through Friday):

FREQ=FISCAL_YEAR;BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI;BYPERIOD=2,4;BYSETPOS=-1
