Hello,

I'm trying to pass configuration options to the hypervisor.

It seems like each VM has an "other_config" section that I should be able to add options to, but I can't seem to figure out how to read them from the hypervisor.
In userland I can set the options using " session.xenapi.VM.add_to_
other_config(  ) " (In Python) but is there any way to retreive it from the hypervisor?

If not, is there another mechanism where I can store additional configuration data?

Thanks.
