Can a non dba user create oracle job?

Question

Hi i have connected to oracle as a non dba user (ie, it has no 'dba' privilege).I tried to create an oracle JOB with this user. But I couldn't. Is it possible to do it as a non dba user? (Also ,before creating the Job i tried to get what's the current maximum id of existing JOBs.That also I couldn't)

Answer 1

You don't need DBA privileges to creae a job.

For further details check the Security Model chapter in the Oracle documentation:

DBMS_JOBS

DBMS_SCHEDULER
