Re: [Xen-API] Accessing xentore data created by VM.add_to_xenstore_data

[George Shuklin <george.shuklin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Use relative paths inside VM.

For example:

xenstore-write data/foo bar
xenstore-ls data

PS If you are using XCP, dig into xe guest tools, they do many 
operations with xenstore from guest machine from shell scripts.
