Unfortunately this is confusing because the term metadata is used for two
different things.
the metadata visible to the instance is a replication of the aws metadata
server. it is constructed from the database (mostly the instances table)
The metadata you were setting with your command are sets of keys and values
that are visible in the compute api:
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/developer/openstack-compute-api-1.1/content/MetadataSection.html
which is stored in the instance_metadata table

no, there is currently no way of doing this through the api.
