How about
dbms_job.submit(:jobno, 'statspack.snap', sysdate+n/1440, 'sysdate
15/1440');
where n= a number of minutes to the nearest 15 minutes. So if it's 14:25
then it would
be sysdate+5/1440.
since you only need to do this one time, just make sure that sysdate + n =
0, 15, 30 or 45
after the hour... :-) Of course, if you want to automate the thing, then
build this around a PL/SQL procedure...that calculates the value of n.....
Not elegant, but I think that when
someone looks at DBA_JOBS they are not going to ask what the $*#(@( you were
trying to do..
I subscribe to the KISS philosophy...
:-)

Feeling particularly anal the other day, I used the following
specification to
run statspack at the top of the hour, 15, 30 and 45 minutes after the
hour.
variable jobno number;
variable instno number;
begin
select instance_number into :instno from v$instance;
dbms_job.submit(
:jobno
, 'statspack.snap;'
-- every 15 minutes at 00,15,30 and 45
, trunc(sysdate,'hh24') + ( ( 15 + ( 15 *
floor(to_number(to_char(sysdate,'mi')) / 15))) / ( 24 * 60 ))
, 'trunc(sysdate,''hh24'') + ( ( 15 + ( 15 *
floor(to_number(to_char(sysdate,''mi'')) / 15))) / ( 24 * 60 ))'
);
commit;
end;
/
Seems to me that the time specs could be simplified a bit.
Anyone care to give it a go? :)
