Instalar vmware tools en SUSE Linux



Cómo instalar vmware tools en un SLES (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server).



Me acabo de descargar la última versión de SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP2 y he creado una plantilla en vmware para desplegar máquinas a partir de ella.

Ahora, el vCenter me indica que el sistema operativo no tiene instaladas las vmware tools.

He tratado de instalar las "open vm tools" como de costumbre:

HOST# zypper install open-vm-tools zypper in open Refreshing service 'Basesystem_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Desktop_Applications_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Development_Tools_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Python_2_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'SUSE_Linux_Enterprise_Server_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'SUSE_Package_Hub_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Server_Applications_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Web_and_Scripting_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... 'open' not found in package names. Trying capabilities. No provider of 'open-vm-tools' found. Resolving package dependencies... Nothing to do.

Esta vez no ha funcionado.

Tras darle algunas vueltas, he hecho lo siguiente:

HOST# zypper install open-vm-tools* Refreshing service 'Basesystem_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'SUSE_Linux_Enterprise_Server_15_SP2_x86_64'. Refreshing service 'Server_Applications_Module_15_SP2_x86_64'. Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... 'open-vm-tools' providing '*vm-tools*' is already installed. No update candidate for 'open-vm-tools-11.2.5-4.12.1.x86_64'. The highest available version is already installed. Resolving package dependencies... The following NEW package is going to be installed: open-vm-tools-sdmp 1 new package to install. Overall download size: 44.4 KiB. Already cached: 0 B. After the operation, additional 31.6 KiB will be used. Continue? [y/n/v/...? shows all options] (y): y Retrieving package open-vm-tools-sdmp-11.2.5-4.12.1.x86_64 (1/1), 44.4 KiB ( 31.6 KiB unpacked) Retrieving: open-vm-tools-sdmp-11.2.5-4.12.1.x86_64.rpm ...............[done] Checking for file conflicts: ..........................................[done] (1/1) Installing: open-vm-tools-sdmp-11.2.5-4.12.1.x86_64 .............[done]

Tras instalar este paquete con un wildcard al final (*), el sistema ha encontrado un paquete con la coletilla "sdmp". Lo he instalado y vmware ya no se ha quejado más.
