How should VMTools be deployed from Kace to clients?

We have about 100 VM servers. I've heard in the past that deploying VMTools from Kace can cause issues on the clients.

Is there a best practice method for deploying VMTools to servers?

Automation of VMTools installation can be found here:  http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.vmware.vmtools.install.doc%2FGUID-CD6ED7DD-E2E2-48BC-A6B0-E0BB81E05FA3.html

It may not be best to deploy as an application from a management tool.

  • Thanks! I was not keen on deploying VMTools from anything other than VMware. The method in your link works as well for the task at hand. - murbot 11 years ago
