Once uploaded you will need to either use the ESXi support console or use SSH to You will need to transfer the zip file to the ESXi host either using vSphere client or SCP. You may need to ensure the OS X scripts have execute permissions

This is really only needed if you want to use client versions of Mac OS X.

On Mac OS X you will need to be either root or use sudo to run the scripts. Lnx-update-tools.cmd - retrieves latest OS X guest tools You may need to ensure the Linux scripts have execute permissions On Linux you will need to be either root or use sudo to run the scripts. Win-update-tools.cmd - retrieves latest OS X guest tools On Windows you will need to either run cmd.exe as Administrator or usingĮxplorer right click on the command file and select "Run as administrator". Edit the VMX file and add: smc.version = "0" | Change the VM to be HW 10 - this does not affect performance.Ģ. If you create a new VM using version 11 hardware VMware will stop and create a core dump.There are two options to work around this issue:ġ. Latest Linux and ESXi products are OK and do not show this problem. If you are using VMware Player or Workstation on Windows you may get a core dump. Windows has a packaged version of the Python script using PyInstaller, and so does not Python interpreter and should work without requiring any additional software. Most Linux distros, ESXi and OS X ship with a compatible There are some challenges to write the code as ESXi has a subset of Python 2.7 whichĬonstrains some modules that can be used. The code is now Python as it makes the Unlocker easier to run and maintain on ESXi. In all cases make sure VMware is not running, and any background guests have Message on those systems telling you that it will not be patched.

The vmwarebase code does not need to be patched on OS X or ESXi so you will see a You will have to manually mount the darwin.iso for example on Workstation 11 and Player 7. Note that not all products recognise the darwin.iso via install tools menu item. Fix libvmkctl.so on ESXi 6 to allow use with vCenterĭownload a copy of the latest VMware Tools for OS X.so to allow Apple to be selected during VM creation Fix vmware-vmx and derivatives to allow Mac OS X to boot.The patch code carries out the following modifications dependent on the product Player 7 & Workstation Player 12 on Windows and Linux.If you are using an earlier product please continue using Unlocker 1 Unlocker 2 is designed for Workstation 11, Player 7, ESXi 6 and Fusion 7.
