Re: [Xen-devel] Creating a custom directory tree inside Xenstore

[Patrick Colp <pjcolp@xxxxxxxxx>]

While Keir is right and you can put children in a node with data, it 
should be noted that the XenStore protocol suggests that you should not 
do this (i.e. a node should contain either data or children, but not both).
There is work being done on a new XenStore designed to fix the security 
and performance problems with the current version and this is one 
problem that is slated to be fixed.
