We have redhat 7 Linux on vCenter 5.5 u2 but on vsphere web client Guest OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (64-bit) showing and vmtools 3rd-party/Independent running.
Will it be a problem for virtual machines ?
Hello there,
RHEL7 is supported after 55U3, so you might not find correct display on ESX before that version. (check Guest OS compatibility guide VMware Compatibility Guide - Guest/Host Search)
"3rd-party/Independent" status might indicate that this OS is brought up with OpenVMTools (Which means, vmtools bundled within guest os release directly https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools)
So overall it looks good, yet I am still a little bit curious about what "performans" stands for in the title. May I know if you ever hit any performance issue?
Thanks
Yike
