Problem was that, if memory provided, the number of nodes was determined from the number of tasks per node.
The proposed solution hard sets
--nodeson the slurm script, and forces num_tasks_per_node to None on ReFrame.This way, SLURM is responsible of distributing tasks across nodes.
❗ WARNING ❗
Possible issue: this does not ensure that it will work for scheduler other than SLURM.
