I have a coordinator package that is going to run alot of long running batch processes through dbms_job. Could be as many as 300 of them. I know to set my job_queue_processes = 36.
however, I want to 'wait' until all of these are done. My concern is with concurrency. here is pseudo code: max number := 0; counter number := 0; loop dbms_job.submit.... dbms_alert.register... max := max + 1; exit when finished submitted for i in 1.. max LOOP dbms_alert.waitany(... stuff...) end loop; my concern is in the split second while my coordinate is awake, that another dbms_alert could get issued and Ill never reach my max counter in the loop. do I need to use dbms_lock to serialize this? Its not that big of a deal, Im just hoping that oracle serializes it for me. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: <[EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
