VMware Workstation 16.2.4，Guest是Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)。现需要安装VMwareTools，一是为显卡驱动，二是为hgfs。
VMwareTools变化比较大，不要再用VMware自带的iso安装了。我就犯了经验主义错误，为了支持hgfs，总是源码编译vmhgfs.ko，一度以为open-vm-tools不包含hgfs的支持，事实上是支持的。
这次一开始仍然习惯性地用iso安装VMwareTools，遭遇”Segmentation fault”，排查中才发现过去混用iso与open-vm-tools，是一种很low的搞法。只用open-vm-tools即可，vmtoolsd属于open-vm-tools，vmtoolsd运行后桌面分辨率开始自适应，同时支持hgfs。

在Host中为Guest指定Shared Folders Settings->Options->Shared Folders安装两个包，重启使之生效
aptitude install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop reboot lsmod | grep vmw ps auwx | grep vm
$ vmware-toolbox-cmd -v11.3.5.31214 (build-18557794)
$ vmhgfs-fuse –version vmhgfs-fuse: version 1.6.12.0 FUSE library version 3.10.5 using FUSE kernel interface version 7.31
fusermount3 version: 3.10.5
$ vmhgfs-fuse –enabled vmhgfs-fuse: 0 – HGFS FUSE client enabled
$ vmware-hgfsclient *share
share是GUI中指定的”Shared Folders”名字，若上述命令能看到share，表示hgfs底层支持已经就位。
如下命令均可手动mount hgfs mkdir /mnt/hgfs
vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o subtype=vmhgfs-fuse,allow_other
vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other -o uid=1000
vmhgfs-fuse -o subtype=vmhgfs-fuse,allow_other /mnt/hgfs
mount -t fuse.vmhgfs-fuse .host:/ /mnt/hgfs -o allow_other
umount /mnt/hgfs
可在/etc/fstab中增加一行，以便自动mount，比如
————————————————————————–
.host:/ /mnt/hgfs/ fuse.vmhgfs-fuse defaults,allow_other,uid=1000 0 0
————————————————————————–
.host:/ /mnt/hgfs/ fuse.vmhgfs-fuse allow_other,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=0002,auto_unmount,defaults 0 0

若不幸用VMware自带的iso安装，可能遭遇”Segmentation fault”，此时可回滚
/root/src/vmware/vmware-tools-distrib/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl apt-get purge –auto-remove open-vm-tools rm -rf /etc/vmware-tools/rm -rf /usr/lib/vmware-tools/
再重新安装open-vm-tools*
aptitude install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop
查看这两个包都安装了些啥
dpkg -L open-vm-tools
dpkg -L open-vm-tools-desktop
启用时间同步vmware-toolbox-cmd timesync enable
若启动、关闭Guest过程中Host弹框提示
The VMware Tools power-on script did not run successfully in this virtual machine. If you have configured a custom power-on script in this virtual machine, make sure that it contains no errors. You can also submit a support request to report this issue.
直接原因是/etc/vmware-tools/目录下的内容有问题，root cause很可能是卸载、重装open-vm-tools过程中出幺蛾子了。一般按下列顺序操作即可解决
apt-get purge –auto-remove open-vm-tools reboot aptitude install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop shutdown -P now
若对这种脚本感兴趣，可以查看到底是哪个脚本
$ vmware-toolbox-cmd help script
script: control the scripts run in response to power operations
Usage: vmware-toolbox-cmd script <power|resume|suspend|shutdown> <subcommand> [args]
Subcommands:
enable: enable the given script and restore its path to the default
disable: disable the given script
set <full_path>: set the given script to the given path
default: print the default path of the given script
current: print the current path of the given script
NOTE: If the path is not present in tools.conf, its
value from the global configuration is returned if present
$ vmware-toolbox-cmd script power current/etc/vmware-tools/poweron-vm-default
$ vmware-toolbox-cmd script shutdown current/etc/vmware-tools/poweroff-vm-default
在”VMware->VM->Power”菜单处，一般有
Power On
Power Off
Suspend
Reset
若装了VMwareTools，此处会多出另外几项
Start Up Guest
Shut Down Guest
Suspend Guest
Restart Guest
“Shut Down Guest”比”Power Off”要多做一些动作，会执行相应脚本，比如
/etc/vmware-tools/poweroff-vm-default
若用了”Suspend Guest”，恢复时应该用配对的”Resume Guest”，而非缺省的Resume，前者涉及相应脚本，后者与脚本无关。条件允许时，尽量用”Suspend Guest”。
