LSB_ENABLE_ESTIMATION

Syntax

LSB_ENABLE_ESTIMATION=Y|N

Description

Enables job start time estimation. When set to Y, mbatchd uses a simulation-based estimator to predict the start time of jobs.

To view the estimated start time of a job, run bjobs -l and refer to the ESTIMATION section, or run bjobs -o and specify estimated_sim_start_time or the esstart_time alias as a display field (for example, run bjobs -o "esstart_time"). If mbatchd did not estimate the start time for the specified job, bjobs -l does not display the ESTIMATION section.

To view the status of the LSF estimator, run badmin showstatus.

Default

N.
