I have been installing the official vmware-tools rpm on all of my RHEL6 
servers, and then updating /etc/vmware-tools/tools.conf from true to false:
sed -i 's/disable-tools-version=true/disable-tools-version=false/g' 
/etc/vmware-tools/tools.conf

This then shows that vmware-tools is running and updated inside of my vcenter 
console.


For RHEL7 however, we are now being asked to use open-vm-tools, which is 
perfectly fine and works well.  Is there a conf file I can update that will 
remove the 3rd Party/Independent from the VM console?  Is it as simple as 
adding a tools.conf file?
[vmtools]
disable-tools-version=false


Look forward to hearing from you
