Hi,
I'm trying to find a way to upgrate my VMTools on about 40-60 VMs wihout performing a reboot. The reboot will occur during the next patch cycle.
I've looked through: from page 80 on, with no joy. I've searched the communities and found one post on this that is relavent: http://communities.vmware.com/message/850189#850189 . But the msi does not appear to like a gui'less quiet installation.
Has anyone successfully upgraded the VMTools without immediately rebooting the VMs, either from vCenter or from a script? If so, your help would be appreciate.. and I award points! :smileycool:
NB: I do not use Powershell yet. So, a VB script would be my best option.
Thanks!
PowerShell may be your best bet, here is a thread worth checking out
