• VMS with VMware Tools ESXi5 works for host ESX4.1?

  Hello

  Just upgraded a 4.1 ESX host to ESXi 5 host in a Cluster of 3 armies.

  We observe that VMware tools running obsolete for the virtual machines on the host ESXi5.  We would like to know if we apply the latest VMWare tools on those virtual machines, they run correctly when they are transferred to ESX 4.1 hosts?

  Thank you

• VMware tools for windows 98

  I'm fighting for two hours just to find the @$ & #^! VMware tools for Windows 98.

  For admins:

  Is it so difficult to include a link and a line on the site somewhere?

  With so many questions posted here, you already know that you don't have to make it all work automated, so in many cases a manual alternative is the only option.

  After the installation of Windows 98, there was a message that Vmware tools OS installed but I still only 16 colors, 640 x 480 res and an answer that is worse than a slideshow, so I guess that no Vmware tools have been installed.

  I tried some of the ISO images here https://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/index.html but they are not accepted for the player or the operating system.

  So, Vmware tools option exists for Windows 98 or not?

  Hello

  you do not have the option:

  Player - manage?  (because theire you might normally before the installation process) to mount the iso,... and so on

  have you tried to mount the Iso local player manually? (not the source vmware Web)

  you have enough disk space?

  Best regards

• Installation driver SVGA II without VMWare tools

  Long history behind it, but anyone know how to install driver vmware SVGA II in a Windows XP client without having to install all the VMware tools?

  For the life of me, I can't find a driver download location anywhere on the net...

  Assuming you are using workstation or server, you will have access to the ISO image to install vmtools - it will be in the app vmware named windows.iso - just mount the iso, cancel the auto start if necessary and then use the drivers from the cd (iso) as you would for any other updated driver.

  In Device Manager it just use XP for display, driver update, have disc etc and everything should be fine.

  I recommend you to update the mouse at the same time

• VMware tools State prevents the publication of VMware templates

  Hi all

  I have created a template in Lab Manager 3.0, but I am unable to change the status to released because Virtual Center 2.5 and Lab Manager 'think' that VMware tools is not installed.

  It is a new installation of Redhat RHEL Server 5.0, kernel 2.6.18 - 92.el5. The VMware tools install seemed to go very well, without error. rpm and yum both agree that VMwareTools 7302-123630 is installed. Same Virtual Center showed VMware Tools as 'OK' for a minute before changing the status "not installed".

  Reboots and reinstalls have not changed behavior. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks,-Jeff

  Go to the properties of the virtual machine template. Uncheck "Run the customization" and click Update. Now try the editing model.

• Need for security upgrade VMware Tools?

  Hello, Im using a VMware environment that runs a good handful of Linux VM.  We're running 5.1 VMware update 3 on all hosts.

  Im not a Linux guy and im going to have to start learning more about Linux, but I've noticed to allocate to the virtual machine is here who have Linux, either do not have VMware tools installed, or are obsolete.  Its mix of Red Hat Enterprise 6, SUSE Linux 11, CentOS 4/5/6/7 and Ubuntu.

  My first concern is security, from a point of view security should I get these Linux VM up to date with the latest VMware tools, or else get installed on it?

  A feature point of view im says that the virtual machine is working well.

  Thank you

  Mike

  Hi Defrogger,

  I have a small number of Linux virtual machines in my environment and I have VMware tools installed, its always good to keep up to date.

  They also provide the required drivers for the VM Client interact with the reliable ESXi host. This interface allows also ESXi host be able to check on the health of the client VM during its operation.

• Wrong message 'VMware Tools can be updated' for the virtual machine within ESXi 4.1

  These VMware tools in my guest operating system keep on the list "VMware Tools can be updated" and the yellow exclamation point.

  Host operating system is ESXi 4.1.0 build 348481

  VMware Tools version is 8.4.8 build 491717

  It is not on the files with the extension.001 as described in the following article

  http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2001382

  I checked and there is no file with this extension.

  I think that VMware tools is unable to read or to compare the correct numbers.  Or is there another reason?

  Reply to my own post:

  The answer, in fact the procedure, is inside this article:

  https://communities.VMware.com/docs/doc-31365

  For some reason VMware Tools is not installed correctly (for example files from previous versions are left inside the hard disk).  So I have to do a manual cleaning before you reinstall the tools.

• VMware Tools for FreeBSD using Server 5

  Hello

  We run VMware Server 5 and I installed a RELEASE of FreeBSD 8.2 Guest 64-bit on the system.

  I'm trying to locate the installer of VMware for OS tools, but I can't find it anywhere.

  The vmware-tools cd that goes up is only for Linux and not * BSD.

  I have Google would be like crazy, but couldn't find anywhere to download the edition of FreeBSD.

  Could someone point me in the right direction?

  Thank you

  You have the Version/OS invited under change the settings from-> Options tab-> General Options on FreeBSD? If this isn't the case, that's maybe why you get bad VMware tools.

• Is ESX VMWare tool for distance learning classes?

  I'm trying to understand the VMWare tool to meet our needs, and Googling does not do me much good.  Can someone point me in the right direction please?

  I'm a software trainer.  I'm at a client site.  Sitting in front of me are 12 students who are here to learn how to operate a particular software.  Each of them needs their own separate PC that contains the installed package.  Each student must be able to start and stop services on this PC.  Now, I could install a separate VMWare image on each of their PCs, but it is about 15 GB of space that they have not necessarily available, and I have to trust them to delete their hard drives after class is over.

  OR... I could tell the students to 12 separate virtual machines running on a server remote back in my office.  I think it looks much better than 12 individual facilities on 12 PCs, that may not be appropriate for the task.

  So, what tool VMWare should I for it?  And once that is installed on the server at my Galactic headquarters in Timbuktu, how do students access a specific 12 images running on this server, in order to run programs and start and stop the services in this image exactly as if it were an image VMware installed on their own PC?

  Thank you!

  If it's something you need NOW, the best bet would be to deploy 12 VPC via vCenter or your ESX host, enable RDP on the VPC and RDP in each vPC.  This will give you access to each student for the own work station.

  Since space is a problem on the physical devices, then VMware Workstation may not be your best bet right now.

• Cannot install VMWare tools on first installation of VMW Player for Windows

  Y at - it a tip to install VMWare Tools on VMW Player for Windows.  Tried as a Player 7.1.1 and 6.0.5.

  I downloaded the "darwin" and "windows versions" of tools with version management for versions of reader (for Player 6.05 6.05 tools).  But I don't know how to get VMWare to see downloaded files.  I connected the darwin.iso in the folder of the payload for the CD/DVD drive under settings of the virtual computer.

  I always get a dialog box with this message when I select install VMWare Tools in the menu:

  "Cannot find component on the update server. Contact VMware Support or your system administrator. »

  If you have the appropriate iso image attached to the guest, you have no need to use the "Install VMware Tools" menu - it's all that.  Go to comments and run the installation from the CD-ROM drive.

• VMware Tools for Mac on EsXi 5.5

  I'm trying to install VMware Tools on a Mac on my 5.5 EsXi box.  I get the following error:

  VMWare Tools upgrade error

  Call 'VirtualMachine.MountToolsInstaller' for the 'host name' object on EsXi host failed.

  VIX 21003 = error code

  Anyone where I can download Vmware Tools for mac on an EsXi 5.5 box?  Perform a google search, I am led to this page to download VMware Tools:

  Index of /45848/tools/esx/5.0

  However, this site lists only on Windows and Linux.  I do not see any version of Vmware Tools Mac.

  Nevermind, I was able to get rid of the error message by removing my cd player.  Its strange that after mounting will cause this error.  Also its strange that there isn't any downloadable version online.  But no matter I got it solved.

• VMware Tools for Mac will not install bug.

  Hello I have a clean install of Mac OS x 10.9 I raise in a virtual machine but when I bring the VMware Tools installed, get an error:

  Cannot install VMware Tools on this disk.  VMware Tools requires Mac OS X 10.5 or higher.

  Screenshot attached.

  I've tried versions both 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 darwin.iso for VMware Fusion. but the same error.   I wonder what VMware is actually audit to determine the versions of operating system.   I have in the past summer success install the same software on the same computer, but I have tried to reinstall from scratch (more than once) and tried many changes of setting on both hosts and guests with no joy.   Anyone know how to fix?   

  Thank you.

  who was happy to install VMware tools...

  I'll tell you one last time...  When clean install OS X 10.9 Mavericks under VMware Fusion 6.0.2 VMware Tools are not automatically installed!

  In addition, it turns out that the "internal" or "removable" made no difference that I was able to move the vmdk from SATA, SCSI (appears inside the system) but that made no difference either but has been tested

  I have mentioned that the drive internal vs external because VMware Fusion before 6.0.2 has not created a good installer for OS X 10.9 Mavericks nor was it settled the case, and the fact that it was not properly installed may have been a contributing factor to the VMware Tools install problem not necessarily imply that the disk shows as external!

  I wonder if there is another way to install VMware Tools manually?  I can see the directory structure exposed within the darwin.iso but don't know if I can cp

  This straight out of the iso, but not being is not a Mac OSX expert... don't know if I can run alternate and no package installer idea what files are changed by install VMware Tools.

  Still confident enough, I can work around the issue of the installer.

  I just tested this on a clean build and with the help of pacifists opened the VMware Tools.pkg (Install VMware Tools.app/Contents/Resources/VMware Tools.pkg) in the bundle 'Install VMware Tools.app' on darwin.iso (VMware Tools for OS X) and "Selected files.pkg content" then clicked on install and check 'use administrator privileges '.  He basically just moved the files in places and then after that I restarted the computer virtual VMware Tools seem to work.  I tested VMware shared folders, copy & paste, drag & drop, and change the resolution of the screen... all seem to work fine, however it was simply intended as a test and not a recommended method to install VMware Tools and I don't know if it is essentially a complete installation.  I don't have the time now to analyze the two occurrences, one made appropriately and the other using pacifists to see if there is in fact no difference.

  I was also going to take the vmdk to another platform and see if any difference (doubt it will be)

  Any platform with not brand hardware Apple is a direct violation of the SLA products and may not be discussed in these forums!
