Activating a Batch Job Stream Definition
Once the Batch Job Stream Definition is ready, it can be activated
in Oracle Scheduler to run at periodic intervals by transitioning
the Batch Job Stream Definition to Active state. An activated Batch
Job Stream Definition is called a Batch Job Stream. A Batch Job Stream
runs based on the schedule defined on it.
Note: A Batch Job Stream
with no schedule runs immediately and only once when activated.

By default, every batch job in a Batch Job Stream Definition is internally setup to run in such a way that if that batch job fails the Batch Job Stream run stops execution. User then has an option to fix the issue and re-start the stream.
