Vmware Tools Esxi 6.5
So there are VMware Tools 10.1.10 and 10.1.15 you can download from and you'll want the VMware Tools packages for FreeBSD, Solaris and OS X download available as either a.zip or a tar.gz you then upload the freebsd.iso file to a datastore and mount that to the KBOX virtual CD Drive to upgrade the tools. The bad news is in 10.2.0 VMware have dropped support for FreeBSD completely, requiring the use of open-vm-tools instead as stated in the release notes here: I appreciate this is VMware's doing of dropping support, but KACE really shouldn't publish an article pointing fingers at VMware and appearing to bury their heads in the sand as 'nothing to do with them'. Enterprises want to use Enterprise hypervisors, and VMware is popular in this field, they also chose KACE KBOX. It's unfortunate VMware have decided to drop FreeBSD support, but they have, so we look to Quest KACE our vendor to adapt for its customers to changes in the industry, (its why the web client has HTML5 version now which hopefully by 2020 will be the main version with all features, didn't just point to Adobe and do nothing), otherwise customers may adapt themselves, away from Quest KACE KBOX, there's already pressure here to switch to SCCM.

Nico_K, can you confirm that newer versions of KACE virtual appliances will handle installing and updating of the Open-vm-tools? We need an official communication from Quest KACE on this as I'm sure you can appreciate. We need to know that a future version of the KBOX appliances will handle this to ensure communication with VMware is maintained, or KACE will migrate to a different Linux OS that VMware do still support with VMtools. According to the, you just need to download 'VMware Tools packages for FreeBSD, Solaris and OS X' and use the one called freebsd.iso. In the kb it says to also download the 'Windows and Linux' iso as well. But I'm not sure what that one is needed for. The KB is definitely lacking in details.

Vmware Tools Esxi 6.5 U1
VMware Tools (vmtools) are periodically updated to include improved drivers, bug fixes, and better OS support. With vSphere 6.5, the tools package is now split into two distinct ones, one for Legacy operating systems, some of which are no longer supported by the original vendor and one for current operating systems. In the below example, VMware ESXi 6.0 provides forward compatibility with the virtual machines running newer version of VMware Tools such as VM tools from ESXi 6.5 U1 and also it support backward compatibility with virtual machines running older version of VM Tools from ESXi upto ESXi 5.0.
