Hi Douglas, Thanks for the insight. That may actually be desirable, and it's good to know that it's supported like that. I'll speak with my supervisors about what policies they are wanting giving these new details. I appreciate your all's help. Jacob Chappell On Mon, Jun 5, 2017 at 10:20 AM,

I believe you can use fairshare without decaying usage, the fairshares will only decline over time is all. This may mean that a user that consumes a large portion of their share early may have trouble getting priority later. On Jun 5, 2017 7:10 AM, "Jacob Chappell"

I think you could still set GrpTRESRunMins on an account or association to set hard quotas. On Jun 5, 2017 5:21 AM, "Jacob Chappell" wrote: > Hi Chris, > > Thank you very much for the details and clarification. It's unfortunate > that you can't have both fairshare and

Hi Chris, Thank you very much for the details and clarification. It's unfortunate that you can't have both fairshare and fixed quotas. I'll pass this information along to my supervisors. Jacob Chappell On Sun, Jun 4, 2017 at 7:55 PM, Christopher Samuel wrote: > > On
