Re: [Xen-API] Configuration options from the hypervisor?
Thanks, but I'm actually referring to per VM configuration data. I'm
trying to get some custom configuration strings passed to the
hypervisor when a VM starts.
I was hoping that somehow I could read the other_config section from the hypervisor, but maybe it's only possible to pass data after starting the guest with an event channel?

Arguments for the hypervisor are passed by the boot loader. Take a look at
/boot/extlinux.conf.
