I tried the code below and the data isn't created in xenstore:
<code>
VM.add_to_xenstore_data(vm_ref, 'data/description', description)
</code>
In Host, I checked the vmid to use in xenstore in guest shell:
<host_shell>
# xl list
xen-vmd24 18 1024 6 r-- 9.2
</host_shell>
And also I checked the xenstore-data vm-params:
<host_shell>
# xe vm-param-get uuid=9b6f6aec-5be0-54cf-077f-131cd8a49d5a
param-name=xenstore-data
data/description: data of description
</host_shell>
Checking if the data was write in xenstore and is available to read in VM:
<vm_shell>
l# xenstore-list /local/domain/18/data
meminfo_total
meminfo_free
os_name
os_majorver
os_minorver
os_uname
os_distro
updated
</vm_shell>
Some idea how can I use this feature?
Cheers
