Copying commands to dom0

If you are determined to copy some files to dom0 anyway, you can use the following method. (If you want to copy text, first save it into a text file.) Run this command in a dom0 terminal:

qvm-run --pass-io <src-vm> 'cat /path/to/file_in_src_domain' > /path/to/file_name_in_dom0

Note that you can use the same method to copy files from dom0 to domUs (if, for some reason, you don’t want to use qvm-copy-to-vm ):

cat /path/to/file_in_dom0 | qvm-run --pass-io <dest-vm> 'cat > /path/to/file_name_in_appvm'

example case :

in vault vm i have onequbesuser.asc

the command should be :

qvm-run --pass-io vault 'cat ~/pubkey/onequbesuser.asc' > ~/onequbesuser.asc
