This page is about to install ESXi on bare metal and later install SME9.1 as one vm.
Install SME9.2 as a Centos6. Later you must install vmware-tools following this:
rpm --import https://packages.vmware.com/tools/keys/VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-RSA-KEY.pub
db yum_repositories set vmware-tools repository \ Name 'VMWare Tools' \ BaseURL 'https://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/6.0u2/rhel6/$basearch' \ EnableGroups no \ GPGCheck yes \ GPGKey https://packages.vmware.com/tools/keys/VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-RSA-KEY.pub \ Visible no \ status disabled
At this point install vmware tools
signal-event yum-modify ; yum --enablerepo=vmware-tools install vmware-tools-esx-kmods vmware-tools-esx-nox
At this point, vmware-tools will autostart
Verify the service is online after the reboot:
/etc/vmware-tools/init/vmware-tools-services status
Should show something like
#vmtoolsd is running
