CentOS5.3にvmware-toolsをインストール

仕事がバタバタしていて環境構築が遅れてました。

さぼらないようにという戒めの為にblogで生き恥進捗報告しようと決めているので、ちゃんとススメます。

VMware Fusion上にCentOSをインストールするのはそれほど難しくないです。

ただ、僕の好みで最小インストール+GNOMEデスクトップという組み合わせでインストール。
GUI環境にコダワリはありませんが、GUI環境が必要な時にはいつでも立ち上げれるようにインストール時には一緒に入れておいて、後ほど自動起動しない設定にしておけば簡単に選択できるという理由です。

っで、インストール直後に一番最初に実施したのは、VMware-toolsのインストール。

早速インストール直後にvmware-toolsのインストールを開始。
SSHログインしての操作が殆どになるので必須では無いという判断もアリだけど、仮想環境上のゲストOSでは何もしないと時刻同期がうまくいかずにDBサーバ等の機能を持たせたり、ログの時刻を見る時などに非常に困った状況が発生してしまう。
vmware-toolsだけでは不十分らしいですが、インストールは最低限の対策となります。

1. OSをGUI環境を含めて起動

2. VMware-toolsのイメージをマウント

[仮想マシン] → [VMware Toolsのインストール]を選択すると自動的にディスクイメージをマウントしてくれて下記のような状態になります。

3. tarボールの展開

# cd /root
# cp -ip /media/VMware¥ Tools/VMwareTools-7.9.7-196839.tar.gz  /root/VMwareTools-7.9.7-196839.tar.gz
# tar -zxvf ./VMwareTools-7.9.7-196839.tar.gz

4. kernel-headers、gccのインストール

VMware-toolsをインストールする際には、kernel-headersとコンパイラが必要となります。

yumコマンドを使えば簡単にインストールできますが、インターネットへの接続が可能な状態が必須となりますので、事前にネットワーク設定を終わらせておく必要があります。

# yum install kernel-headers
# yum install gcc

5. インストール

インストールコマンドを実行します。

ここで１つ注意しなければならない事があります。

インストールコマンドを実行する際は、VMwareのゲストOSのウィンドウでターミナルを立ち上げて実行しなければなりません。

僕はMac上でターミナルを立ち上げてから、ゲストOSに対してSSH接続して実行したのですが以下のようにエラーが出力されて中断されました。

# cd /root/vmware-tools-distrib/

# ./vmware-install.pl

The configuration of VMware Tools 7.9.7 build-196839 for Linux for this running
kernel completed successfully.

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking the following command:
"/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" during an X server session.

You will need to either manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user or log out and log
back in to this desktop session to obtain the following features: guest
resolution fit, drag and drop, and file and text copy/paste.  vmware-user is
configured to automatically start at a graphical login, but that won't take
effect until the next login.

To use the vmxnet driver, restart networking using the following commands:
/etc/init.d/network stop
rmmod pcnet32
rmmod vmxnet
modprobe vmxnet
/etc/init.d/network start

If the virtual printer feature is enabled, you will need to restart the CUPS
service to make use of this feature.

Enjoy,

これでインストールは終了。

自動起動の設定もされているので、OS再起動後にしばらく放置して時刻がくるわなければOK!!
