So the way we handle it is that we give a blanket fairshare to everyone but then dial in our TRES charge back on a per partition basis based on hardware.  Our fairshare doc has a fuller explanation:

Thanks Paul!

For what it's worth, I used to do it that way on gridengine, but then had to switch to a multiple project scheme (which was easier to do, as it has groups of users).

I forget why we moved - I think it was because who used each partition was was orthogonal to who paid for it, but both sets of hardware was busy.

In this case, I think I can safely move back to scaling down the partition charge :)

Cheers,
