Install VMware Tools on a Linux Guest with the Tar Installer or RPM Installer
You can use a Tar command or RPM installer to install VMware tools on a Linux guest OS with a Tar or RPM.
Prerequisites
n
The VMware Remote Console plug-in is installed.
n
The virtual machine is powered on.
n
With an existing installation, delete the vmware-tools-distrib directory before you install. The location
of this directory depends on where you placed it during the previous installation (such as,
tmp/vmware-tools-distrib).
Procedure
1 Click My Cloud.
2 In the left pane, click VMs.
3 Select a Linux virtual machine, right-click, and select Install VMware Tools.
4 Right-click the virtual machine again and click Popout Console.
5 In the guest operating system, log in as root (su-), mount the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image, and
change to a working directory (for example, /tmp.
Some Linux distributions automatically mount CD-ROMs. If your distribution uses automounting, do not
use the mount and unmount commands. You still must untar the VMware Tools installer to /tmp. Some
Linux distributions use different device names or organize the /dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM
drive is not /dev/cdrom, or if the mount point for a CD-ROM is not /mnt/cdrom, modify these commands
to reflect the conventions used by your distribution.
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /tmp
6 Uncompress the installer and unmount the CD-ROM image.
If you install an RPM installation over a tar installation, or the reverse, the installer detects the previous
installation and must convert the installer database format before continuing.
Option Action
In the tar installer
At the command prompt, type
tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-8.5.1-<xxxxxx>.tar.gz
unmount /dev/cdrom where <xxxxxx> is the build or revision number of
the release.
In the RPM installer
At the command prompt, type
tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-8.5.1-<xxxxxx>.i386.gz
unmount /dev/cdrom where <xxxxxx> is the build/revision number of the
release.
