Yes. I have a discussion here which might be useful:

Note this is using the classic fairshare not FairTree which is now the
default for Slurm.

Hi,
In slurm accounting there is the parameter "fairshare" that is
arbitrarily set by the administrator for associations using sacctmgr.
And there is the factor "fair-share" in slurm priority, which is not
set by the administrator but calculated from the amount of resources
used and the resources promised (correct me if I am wrong).
Unfortunately both these concepts are used to determine priority and
so it confuses me.
Are these two concepts different?
Thanks,
