Besides having a separate partition for each type of node, you can also 
have a partition which includes all the nodes, and use the Default=yes 
option in its definition.


 From the docs:

'Default
     If this keyword is set, jobs submitted without a partition 
specification will utilize this partition. Possible values are "YES" and 
"NO". The default value is "NO'
