Yeah, I had that problem as well (trying to set up a partition that didn't have any nodes - they're not here yet).
You can define nodes in Slurm that don't exist yet with State=FUTURE, that means slurmctld basically ignores them until you change that state setting (either with scontrol or updating your config).
I've used that before, and in fact added some nodes in that state yesterday on one of our test HPCs.
