No space left on host for vmware tools

I cannot add new files to /productLocker because the absurdly small partition is out of space.

[root@localhost:/vmfs/volumes/5581aff8-e1a78b70-5bef-6c0b84039d43/packages] df -h

There's absolutely nothing I can delete because the partition is 99.9% full of vmware tools.  I also cannot make a symlink as those don't appear to be supported on the FS.  Can I just increase the size of the partition?  I have plenty of disk space.  I honestly cannot even fathom why such a tiny amount of space was allocated for the vmware tools partition in the first place....
