Let's let the editor take you to learn "how to solve the various problems encountered in installing VMware tools in virtual machines".

Summary of questions:

a. About the failure of installing vSphere client in the VMware summer virtualization experiment

b. The problem of not being able to access the network after creating a virtual machine on an ESXi host

c. Problems encountered in installing VMware tools on a virtual machine

d. The main points of Segmentation check on the problems that can not be added to the iSCSI disk simulated by Starwind

After creating a virtual machine on an ESXi host, installing CentOS 6.6.The problem encountered when installing VMware tools after minimizing the installation.

Solution:

In the first case, you need to click on the virtual machine in the system purchase list to install VMware tools, which is a menu item.

This operation VMware vSphere will automatically map the iso file of the VMware tools installation CD to the / dev/sr0 device. Without this step, no matter how you execute the mount mount command, you will not find the VMware tools installation file.

The second case is that when you execute the mount instruction, you need to mount the device to a specified directory, and you need to build a directory first. For example, create a dvd directory under the / media directory, and then execute it. After the directory is confirmed to exist, execute the mount instruction to mount it.

The third case is about the problem of decompression, when your mount is successful, you had better make sure that after the success of mount, the things under / media/dvd are correct, and whether it is the installation file of VMware tools. If you mount it incorrectly, or if you do not mount it successfully at all, you will definitely not succeed.

If you are not sure whether the decompression specified is wrong, another way is to copy the file / media/dvd/VMware-tools-.tar.gz to the / root directory to extract the installation, because the CD-ROM mounted by / media/dvd is read-only and cannot be written. Decompressing directly under / media/dvd will definitely not be successful. According to the description in the book, the compressed file should be unzipped to the / root directory, but if the command is typed incorrectly or the unzipped directory is not specified, an error will be reported if it is unzipped at the current location. The simple way is to copy the zip file to the / root directory, and then extract it basically without a problem.

With regard to the installation of VMware tools, after yum install perl is successful, you can directly execute the installation script in the directory of VMware tools unzipped files, but there will be a series of interactive confirmation. We only need to install the default option. Generally, the default option will be written in square brackets. At this time, you can enter directly, but there are also some options that require you to answer yes/no. The option is also written in square brackets. You need to enter the default value of yes or no in square brackets directly, and the installation script will install automatically until the installation is complete.

At this point, I believe you have a deeper understanding of "how to solve the various problems encountered in installing VMware tools in virtual machines". You might as well do it in practice.
