Thanks, thats the way if the Tools Comes with a hotfix.

But if there is an newer Version thats not included in a hotfix is it possible to upload the newest Tools to the update Manager?

I find this:VMware Tools 10 deployment with VUM - NoLabNoPartY

Hi,

There is no provision provided to import external tools package  in VUM as we can do for host patches. Currently you can apply whatever default baseline comes along with VUM as predefined.
