今天在VMware虚拟机下为CentOS 7安装VMware Tools的时候，shell提示：

open-vm-tools are available from the OS vendor and VMware recommends using
open-vm-tools. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2073803 for more information.
Do you still want to proceed with this legacy installer? [no]

访问http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2073803看了下安装教程，发现非常简单。

详细过程

1.创建目录并下载密钥文件

mkdir /home/tools

cd /home/tools

wget http://packages.vmware.com/tools/keys/VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-DSA-KEY.pub

wget http://packages.vmware.com/tools/keys/VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-RSA-KEY.pub

2.安装密钥

CentOS：

1 2	rpm --import VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-DSA-KEY.pub rpm --import VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-RSA-KEY.pub

Ubuntu：

1 2	sudo apt-key add VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-DSA-KEY.pub sudo apt-key add VMWARE-PACKAGING-GPG-RSA-KEY.pub

3.新建文件

CentOS：新建 /etc/yum.repos.d/vmware-tools.repo

1	vi /etc/yum.repos.d/vmware-tools.repo

[vmware-tools]

name = VMware Tools

baseurl = http://packages.vmware.com/packages/rhel7/x86_64/

enabled = 1

gpgcheck = 1

Ubuntu：新建 /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vmware-tools.list

1	vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vmware-tools.list

1	deb http://packages.vmware.com/packages/ubuntu precise main

4.安装open-vm-tools

CentOS：

# 查看软件包列表

yum list | grep open-vm

sudo yum install open-vm-tools-deploypkg open-vm-tools-desktop

sudo systemctl restart vmtoolsd

Ubuntu：

# 查看软件包列表

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-cache search open-vm

sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools-deploypkg open-vm-tools-desktop open-vm-toolbox open-vm-dkms

open-vm-dkms用于主机和虚拟机共享文件夹。
