  • Is it recommended that VMware tools kernel modules be updated with VMware provided libraries?

    Posted on

    RHEL 6.x ships with built in kernel modules for the following:

    vmxnet3

    pvscsi

    vmmemctl

     

    We are looking to overwrite them using

       vmware-config-tools.pl --clobber-kernel-modules=...

    to ensure that the VMware modules are in sync with the ESXi layer.

     

    Is this what RHT is expecting?

    Is this what the community commonly does?
