You can! We do:
sacctmgr modify cluster ${CLUSTER} set maxjobs=192
We thought we had to use QoS for this as well, but it's a bad idea as that
takes priority over so many other things.
The reason we'd missed it before is not realising the significance of:
# NOTE: You can also use the general specifications list above in the
# GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR ASSOCIATION BASED ENTITIES section.
in the section on cluster specifications in the sacctmgr manual page.
Best of luck!
