Hi Everybody,
has anyone an idea for the following problem:
we have to deploy some VMs to a large amount of users. We have an installation script to copy the VM to the users harddisk and adding it to vmware player library.
We also added the entry uuid.action="keep" to prevent the player from asking "i moved it / i copied it".
But when you start the copied VM the first time, the vmware player recognizes that the host and location of the VM has changed and disables
the shared folders of the VM and you have to manually enable them again.
You cannot do this step in advance, because the corresponding vmx entry isolation.hgfs.disable is on "FALSE" after copying and only gets
changed by the player to "TRUE" when you start the VM the first time on the new location.
Is there any global setting that prevents the player from doing this ?
Or any other idea how to deal with this issue ?
regards
Andreas
