squeue: View the queue with expected start times.
$ squeue --start
try on your machine

The command "squeue --start" is used in high-performance computing (HPC) environments to display pending or running jobs in the job queue, along with their start time.

When you execute this command in a terminal or shell, it will retrieve information from the job scheduler and display a list of jobs that are waiting or currently running. The output typically includes details such as job ID, partition, username, state, start time, and other relevant information.

The "--start" option is utilized to specifically show the start time of the jobs in the output. It is useful for users to determine when their jobs are scheduled to begin or if they are already running. It helps in monitoring the job progress and coordinating tasks accordingly.
