If you are using dbms_scheduler, this parameter does not work for you. You will […]

Scheduler hangs in Oracle Database 10g

Hi, sometimes the 10g scheduler refuses to start jobs any more. I do not know why at the moment, but as a workaround you can just kill -9 the “coordinator job queue (CJQ0)” process from OS level. The process will be named like “ora_cjq0_SID” in a RAC. PMON does a restart of the coordinator after […]
