DBMS_UTILITY

This package provides various utility subprograms.

DBMS_UTILITY submits a job for each partition. It is the users responsibility to control the number of concurrent jobs by setting the INIT.ORA parameter JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES correctly.There is minimal error checking for correct syntax. Any error is reported in SNP trace files.

Requirements

DBMS_UTILITY runs with the privileges of the calling user for the NAME_RESOLVE, COMPILE_SCHEMA, and ANALYZE_SCHEMA procedures. This is necessary so that the SQL works correctly.

This does not run as SYS. The privileges are checked via DBMS_DDL.
