When will my jobs start?
You can obtain an estimated job start time using the qstat -Tu <unikey> command:
These are estimated start times only and assume no further jobs will be submitted to Artemis and all currently running jobs will use all their requested walltime. These estimated start times change frequently based on when running jobs finish and when more jobs are submitted to Artemis.

| Sa 19 | Estimated to start on Saturday at 7pm |
| Mo 05 | Estimated to start on Monday at 5am |
| Nov | Estimated to start in November. For a more accurate estimate, run qstat -f <jobid> | grep start_time |
| -- | The job scheduler has not yet scheduled your job. |
