Hi guys;
I have install a minimal template of SLES RHEL 7.1 following all the details mentioned in following link
http://www.boche.net/blog/index.php/2015/08/09/rhel-7-open-vm-tools-and-guest-customization/
Points to Note
1. I already have open-vm-tools installed
2. i have installed perl gcc and make on client.
3. i have already installed open-vm-tools-deploypkg.
Using vCenter 6.0u1 and ESxi 5.5 with update 2
My /etc/redhat-release reads:
cat /etc/redhat-release
SLES Expanded Support platform
# Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 (Maipo)
# This is a "SLES Expanded Support platform release 7.1"
# The above "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" string is only used to
# keep software compatibility.
this is how my deploy log looks.
