I think that’s correct. From notes I’ve got for how we want to handle our fairshare in the future:
Setting up a funded account (which can be assigned a fairshare): sacctmgr add account member1 Description="Member1 Description" FairShare=N Adding/removing a user to/from the funded account: sacctmgr add user renfro account=member1 # for all partitions sacctmgr add user renfro account=member1 partition=gpu # for partition-specific fairshare Modifying funded account fairshare: sacctmgr modify account member1 set FairShare=N Modifying funded account fairshare on specific partitions (e.g., if the entity funded GPU nodes) sacctmgr modify user renfro set FairShare=N where account=member1 partition=gpu -- Mike Renfro, PhD / HPC Systems Administrator, Information Technology Services 931 372-3601 / Tennessee Tech University > On Jun 12, 2020, at 3:52 AM, Diego Zuccato <diego.zucc...@unibo.it> wrote: > > Hello all. > > Is it possible to configure Slurm so that fairshare calc on a partition > does not impact calc on a different one? > > We'd need to have different "priorities" on the "postprocessing" nodes > than the ones on "parallel" nodes, so that even if an user already used > up all his "quota" on "parallel" nodes but have never used > "postprocessing", he'll have max prio when submitting jobs on > "postprocessing". > > IIUC, it should be the case if the user have multiple associations > (specifying a different partition for each one).
