Title: warehouse builder's dependance on oem job system.

after reading this over again, i'm not sure i was very clear on this.

 

to paraphrase:

 

does anyone know a way to schedule runs of owb generated code without the use of oem?

 

thank you very much for any help.

Subject: warehouse builder's dependance on oem job system.

ok, here's the situation:  we are loading our warehouse via etl processes generated by warehouse builder (owb).  we went live with this a little over a week ago.  up to this point we have been running the jobs manually through owb.  for obvious reasons we need to be able to schedule these jobs.  the only way (that i know of) to schedule the owb jobs is to deploy them to entreprise manager.  the problem is that our oem is VERY unreliable and seems to be related to bugs.  we are running oem v9.2 and oracle ee v9.2.  when jobs are scheduled through oem, they run sometimes and hang others.  this is unexceptable. 

so my question is:  does anyone know of a way to trap the commands that oem sends to the database?  the obvious solution would be to just cron execution of the packages owb generates inside the database.  this doesn't work though because owb generates funky code that takes parameters, whose values i don't know, for logging purposes. 

hopefully i explained the situation well enough.

any ideas??....i'd like to get rid of the dependance on oem.

oem sucks
