Are you trying to set the maximum number of nodes *per job*? In that case,
MaxNodes seem to be the right limit, as per the sacctmgr man page:
MaxNodes=<max nodes>
Maximum number of nodes each job is able to use in
this association. [...]
Are you trying to set a maximum number of nodes for all jobs? Then
GrpNodes could be what you are looking for instead?
GrpNodes=<max nodes>
Maximum number of nodes running jobs are able to be allocated in
aggregate for this association and all associations which are
children of this association. [...]
