Re: vmsync module not being triggered when taking snapshot

Marcelo Is there any way to invoke the vmsync driver on a Linux VM? For instance, the open-vm-tools web-site says this about vmsync: "It is used by the "vmbackup" vmtoolsd plugin, so ideally it should be loaded prior to starting that service, although it is not required." Is this still accurate,
