Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
| job | The ID of the new job. You can query this ID from the JOB column of the USER_JOBS or DBA_JOBS view. |
| what | The PL text to run in the job. It must be a valid PL statement or code block. An SQL statement submitted in the what parameter is included in the following PL block: sql DECLARE job BINARY_INTEGER := :job; next_date DATE := :mydate; broken BOOLEAN := FALSE; BEGIN WHAT :mydate := next_date; IF broken THEN :b := 1; ELSE :b := 0; END IF; END; |
| next_date | The next date for running the job. |
| interval | The date function used to calculate the next date on which the job will be run. Default value: NULL. It must be a future point in time or NULL. |
| no_parse | Specifies whether to pass back the type constraint of the described parameter if it is of a proper parameter type. The default value is FALSE. The value FALSE specifies to parse the stored procedure associated with the job. The value TRUE specifies to parse the stored procedure associated with the job only when the job is run for the first time. For example, if you want to submit a job before creating a table associated with the job, set this parameter to TRUE. |
| zone | The zone where the job runs. You can specify a zone when you submit the job. |
| force | Specifies whether to forcibly run the job. If this parameter is set to TRUE, the job is run forcibly; otherwise, the job is run only when it is idle. |
Usage notes
Before a job is submitted, it cannot be handled by the job queue in the background.
The
zoneandforceparameters are added to the job queue so that you can specify whether the specified zone can run the submitted job.
