[slurm-users] Multifactor fair-share with single account

[Kamil Wilczek]

Dear All,

I have a question regarding the fair-share factor of the multifactor
priority algorithm. My current understanding is that the fair-share
makes sure that different *accounts* have a fair share of the
computational power.

But what if my organisation structure is flat and I have only one
account where all my user reside. Is fair-share algorithm working
in this situation -- does it take into account users (associations)
from this single account, and tries to assing a fair-factor to each
user? Or each user from this account have the same fair-factor at
each iteration?

And what if I have, say 3 accounts, but I do not wan't to calculate
fair-share between accounts, but between all associations from all
3 accounts? In other words, is there a fair-share factor for
users/associations instead of accounts?

Kind regards
