It's called cron :).  Or you could run a shell script that executes then sleeps for 5 mins. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/23/03 10:09AM >>> im trying to submit a job that runs every 5 minuts. Only way I can get the submit to work is as follows... variable jobno number; variable instno number; begin   select instance_number into :instno from v$instance;   dbms_job.submit(:jobno, 'statspack.snap;', trunc(sysdate+1/24,'HH'), 'trunc(SYSDATE+1/24,''HH'')', TRUE, :instno);   commit; end; i then do: dbms_job.interval(:jobno,'trunc(sysdate+1/96)'; commit; my next_date column in dba_jobs is set to 15 minutes in the future, HOWEVER, it doesnt actually run. The time passes, the next_date does not get set again to nother 15 minutes in the future and the job doesnt run. Ive read the manual. Read metalink. read asktom and Im obvious too stupid to figure this one out. -- 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).  You may also send the HELP command for other information (like subscribing).
