A file watcher is a new scheduler object that enables a new type of even-based job that is triggered by the arrival of a file in a specified location. File watchers can be defined to monitor locations on the local server and remote servers, provided they have an agent installed on them.
We want oracle to import all the objects belonging to HR schema automatically whenever a .dmp file arrives in a specified folder on a system.
To implement it we will use filewatcher which is a new scheduler object in oracle 11g. It enables a new type of event-based job that is triggered by the arrival of a file in a specified location. File watchers can be defined to monitor locations on the local server and remote servers, provided they have an agent installed on them.
I am loading a file to a oracle table every day between 8 a.m and 9 a.m. The file may come at any time between 8 a.m to 9 a.m.
As of now, we are manually checking the file availability and then loading the file into oracle table.
My client is asking us to automate this process. My team is wondering if there is any way we can schedule based on file arrival in a specified location.
SELECT file_watcher_name, destination, directory_path, file_name, credential_name FROM user_scheduler_file_watchers;
SELECT file_watcher_name, destination, directory_path, file_name, credential_name FROM dba_scheduler_file_watchers;
SELECT * FROM DBA_scheduler_credentials;
/* Configuration */
-- by default, a destination is checked every 10 mins.
To change this:
CONN / AS SYSDBA
set serveroutput on
declare v varchar2(1000);

DBMS_SCHEDULER.GET_ATTRIBUTE ( 'FILE_WATCHER_SCHEDULE','REPEAT_INTERVAL', v);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(V);

END;

BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.set_attribute('import_data_job','parallel_instances',TRUE);
END;
/
