Hi
Could someone tell me how I can check the version of open-VMware tools on our VCSA (6.5) is up-to-date?
How do I upgrade open-VMware tools?
Many thanks
Michael
Check this command if that helps:
/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd -v
Try this also if above doesnt work : vmware-toolbox --version
vCenter Server Appliance - VMware tools not running
Please mark this as "correct" or " Helpfull" if this answers your query.

For vCSA open-vm tools is bundled with the iso itself. Upgrading only tools might have adverse effects on vCSA.
Instead update the appliance to the latest build through VAMI.
Yes thats true as per Vijay2027 response.

As implied (although I'll state it openly), do not update software on the vCSA outside of official patch/update bundles published by VMware. Doing otherwise is an unsupported and unstable action.
