Working with the 2011.04.25 source bundle, I have a working
open-vm-tools for UnXis OpenServer 6.0.0. I thought
I had all the VM power control scripts functioning when doing
the port using vCenter 4.0 and ESX 4.0 hosts. Retesting after
upgrading to vCenter 5.0 controlling ESX 4.0, ESXi 4.1 and ESXi5.0
hosts, the suspend script is not being called.
I have edited the VM settings for the vmtools power control options
as follows:
- "Shut Down Guest" and "Restart Guest" selected in the options
- confirmed that the .vmx file has the correct setting for both
powerType.powerOff and powerType.reset - i.e "soft".
- Hand edited the .vmx file to set -
powerType.suspend = "soft"
- confirmed that the Center VM settings shows the setting for
the suspend button as "Put Guest on Standby".
Testing showed that only log files being created were for the
poweron-vm, poweroff-vm and resume-vm scripts.
I have instrumented services/plugins/powerOps/powerOps.c:
PowerOpsSetOptions() - to confirm that all power operations
an especially the suspend operation is
enabled
PowerOpsStateChange() - to track the state changes and whether the
designated script is available....
The only thing logged here is the poweron, poweroff and resume
operations. The suspend operation was never called.
What am I over-looking ???
Thanks for any assistance that you can lend.
