Goal

A job needs to be scheduled on regular intervals, for example Hourly or Daily. But doing so, there is a need to skip unwanted hours/days where job is not expected to run. But Enterprise Manager does not provide any option to skip such unwanted intervals.

Example:

• Any job intended to run every hour. But should not run from 8 PM to 10 PM, for example. OEM does not have any option to skip this unwanted period.
• Any job intended to run once every day, but one day expected to skip. There is no option to do it.

This is applicable to all job type available in OEM Jobs. Following is the job scheduling page of Enterprise Manager.
