Can someone who is deploying virtual machines using VMware's wrapper shout back with the output of:
ls -le /Users/Shared/
I haven't been able to find any info on how to set the "/Users/Shared/Virtual Machines/" folder, pretty sure ACL will be needed.
Thanks,
Don
I may have caused some confusion, this isn't a deployment question, or a question about the virtual machines.
The post is about the /Users/Shared/Virtual Machines folder permissions.
In short, no ACL is needed, we were unsure, but reached out to VMware Support.
Thanks,
Don
Fusion needs to be installed and run from an administrator account, which should automatically take care of the permissions. No need to set them manually.
donmontalvo,
If you used VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Library/Deploy VMware Fusion.mpkg to deploy Fusion and any VM, the deployment will create /Users/Shared/Virtual Machines folder with below permission:
ls -le /Users/Shared/
drwxr-xr-x root wheel Virtual Machines
And the VM deployed into the "/Users/Shared/Virtual Machines" folder has below permission:
ls -le /Users/Shared/Virtual Machines/
drwxrwxrwx root wheel <deployed VM bundle>
