hmmm you could use variable substitution, is that what you need?

in config:
VAR=$(get the number of nodes)
db_subst update-clusters/config_nodes nodesnum $VAR
db_intput medium update-clusters/config_nodes || true

in templates:
Template: update-clusters/config_nodes
(...)
Choices: ${nodesnum}
(...)

is that what u want?

[]s!
