[slurm-users] Fairshare within a single Account (Project)

Thanks for the help!

Is it possible to use FairTree  
(https://slurm.schedmd.com/fair_tree.html) to ensure that all users 
always have equal fairshare. On this account, we have users coming and 
going relatively often and having fairshare automatically adjusted would 
simplify the administration.
