Vmware Tools For Windows Server 2022 Download REPACK
Alma Serrell
I haven't checked Event Viewer because I'm so darn new to Windows server I didn't think about it. Come from Unix/Linux background. I'll go check. Is there any place in particular that VMware tools would be located within Event Viewer?
Step 3:
Login to your windows server core.
Change the directory from C to D or E where VMware tools is mounted.
You can simply try first with D directory & than later go ahead.
Because default is the D directory.
Hard to say what you are doing wrong without more details as I have not had these issues. We have used with with Windows server 2012, 2016 and Windows 10 with the Windows update and no issues. For Linux I just install the tools from the CD and restart as the tool instructs, but that has been from both debian and ubuntu, I have not tested it with other versions but there are a lot of large scale production installs being discussed in their forums -ng.org/forum/
Windows however has proven to be a challenge lately. Normally my process was turn on Windows update in XOA, check for updates and bam there they were citrix tools downloading. I do have an older windows 7 machine (labeled UPI) that was one of the first to work with the XOA way of applying tools.

For a number of years, Stratus has supported the earlier GSX Server hypervisor from VMware, which ran atop Windows or Linux and provided a hypervisor environment in which Linux, Windows, or other operating systems could be loaded. The host operating system in a GSX Server setup was a single point of failure in a standalone server - not much of an issue in an ftServer setup. More importantly, the VMotion virtual machine migration and other features like VirtualSMP (allowing a virtual machine to span many CPU cores or sockets) were not available with GSX Server. (A few years back, VMware rebranded GSX Server as VMware Server and started giving it away. The product, like all VMware's tools, remain closed source even if they are sometimes freely distributed).
