• When you run the script via VMware tools when power changed, some commands in script (as a copy) has failed.

  I came across a very strange question. I tried to create some custom vmware scripting tools, such as a new .bat file. This file contains a large number of orders, mostly as copy command "copy file://\\192.168.172.5\abc.exe c:\. ». I set this file as a custom script for Script event - power on guest operating system. Everything goes well with the bat file when I tested it. But after that I changed the State of power to power on, all other commands work fine except the copy commands in the bat file. Why? How can I make it work? Of course the problem of network. And that makes me very confused.

  Hello

  First copy the files on local disk was OK.

  If this works for local disk, but not to a network drive, then hit you indeed a permissions issue any.

  But if I run the script with tools VMware service script, the commands of copy (of the remote shared folder) failed while other controls worked well. I'm quite confused.

  In fact, it is easily explained. The VMware tools service (Yes, it's a service) runs under the account Local system and by default, the local system account has no access to the network for security reasons. You can change the user of the service runs under and see if that solves your problem (very likely)

  To do this, go to computer management (right-click icon desktop, select 'Manage') and open Services and Applications, service page, locate the VMware Tools service in the list. Select properties, log on to the page tabs and change account at your own Local System account. Restart the service and it should work.

• The purpose of VMware Tools in a Linux guest?

  There are benefits to install VMware tools in a Linux without head/command line only VM?  The only things I see it adding would share his IP address info.  Are there features that I miss out on by installing do not?

  Indeed, as the RPM and tar from the instructions in file ends with "Start X Windows", it seems that it is not designed for anything other than the GUI (for mouse tracking/display setting enhancements)?

  With VMware tools, you can make things easier. For example, you can do 'clean shutdown' of the machine virtual of ESXi, or synchronize the time between ESXi and VM. I'm not sure but I think that vmware balooning pilot would need tools to work correctly.

  But you can still live without vmware-tools and perform all of the above tasks (although not as easily). Personally, I don't use vmware-tools with linux-VM as modular kernel is not permitted in our society.

  Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you must

  Configure it to your kernel running on the

  following command: "/ usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl".

  Config tools... He'll try to compile tools for your kernel, make sure you have the kernel and GCC installed headers.  If the compilation fails, there should be a build any - any for the "vmware tools" somewhere on this site...

• VMware tools on w2k8 r2 standard

  Of in vcenter, I right click my w2k8 r2 standard vm and chose to install vmware tools.  It seems to be partially installed on the virtual machine, but it lists only the "Start VM statistics Logging" in the start/programs menu.  I do not see VMware Tools service in 'Services '.  If after trying to install it, nothing seems to happen except that it connect to the VMware Tools CD.  I have autoplay, install it and it works through the installation, but still nothing more that I've seen before.  Is there something special about w2k8 r2 standard machines to get it going?  All my other machines W2k3 and Winxp installed the tools very well.  In the summary list of all VMs in Vcenter only w2k8 machines show that vmtools are not installed.

  try to uncheck display it the icon in the taskbar and then say ok, then check the icon and click ok.  This fixed it for me with a Citrix server, I got.

  The file is not missing, I'm interested in it right now in archive of gun zipper VMwareTools - 8.8.4 - 743747.tar.gz located in the VMware Tools for VMware Workstation 8.0.4 linux.iso file.

  FWIW, I always install VMware Tools on Linux from a root shell (su - (including Ubuntu)) and the cd vmware-tools-distrib directory and start the installation simply with ./vmware-install.pl just like the instructions say to do, and it usually works without problem by providing that the prerequisites are met.

  I'm new to this game and that you have installed Windows 2000 in my VMWare Player, who continues trying in vain to download "VMWareTools for Windows 2000 and later versions - version 8.4.5".

  I'd appreciate some tips so that I can begin to familiarize themselves with virtualization.

  To manually install VMware Tools on a Windows host download just unzip the archive and run the .exe which result and that will create the windows.iso file and will be available when you select install VMware Tools.

  On a Linux host unzip archive and then in a Terminal, for example, run the following command:

  sudo vmware-installer --install-component=vmware-tools-windows-8.4.5-324285.i386.component
  

  This opens the installer GUI and then you just follow the instructions.  When the windows.iso is available when you install VMware Tools
