You can set the autoupdate on each guest to tell you when an update is available but you have to initiate it on each vm. From: Harry Singh [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2011 1:41 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Cc: Damien Solodow Subject: Re: vSphere 4.1 U1 I can't remember if there is a feature in Vmware, but I believe there is a script out there that can update the tools en masse. I know VMware Tools checks for upgrades, but can't remember if it does the actual install when there is an upgrade available.
