VMWARE TOOLS OPERATING SYSTEM SPECIFIC PACKAGES (OSPS)




WELCOME TO THE WEB SITE FOR VMWARE TOOLS OPERATING SYSTEM SPECIFIC PACKAGES

From this Web site, you can search, browse, and download Operating System
Specific Packages (OSPs) for select supported guest operating systems. OSPs are
a packaging and distribution mechanism for VMware Tools that uses the native
package formats and standards, such as rpm and deb, of the supported guest
operating systems.

Offering an alternative to standard VMware Tools installation mechanisms, OSPs
leverage your operating system's native update mechanisms to automatically
download, install, and manage VMware Tools as appropriate for that operating
system. With OSPs, you manage VMware Tools from within the guest in the same way
you would other standard software.

VMware provides OSPs for older operating systems. For newer operating systems,
the vendor or community provides open-vm-tools as part of the operating system,
and VMware recommends that you use the open-vm-tools that come with these
operating systems. VMware does not provide OSPs for operating system for which
open-vm-tools are available. To learn more about open-vm-tools, see the open-vm-
tools Open Source project.

The following list identifies the guest operating systems for which VMware
supports and provides OSPs. Generally, newer operating system releases are only
supported on more recent platform releases. For detailed guest operating system
support, see the VMware Compatibility Guide.


SUPPORTED GUEST OPERATING SYSTEMS

 * Community ENTerprise Operating System (CentOS) 4.0 through 6.x
 * Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 through 6.x
 * SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 through 11
 * SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 through 11
 * Ubuntu Linux 8.04 through 12.04

To download an OSP for your guest operating system, visit the package repository
at
http://packages.vmware.com/tools. Your usage of the VMware Tools OSPs found on
this Web site is governed by the VMWARE MASTER END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT.

To learn how to download and install OSPs, see the VMware Tools Installation
Guide for Operating System Specific Packages:

 * ESXi versions 5.x and later

For more information about VMware Tools, see the product documentation for your
version of ESX/ESXi at http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/

For guest operating system installation instructions, see the Guest Operating
System Installation Guide at: http://partnerweb.vmware.com/GOSIG/home.html
