Yes，this is reason we always test "Guest Customization" on new guest os daily/beta build before it's released to catch such failure due to guest os change. If the fix is on vSphere side, customer will have to wait for the next vSphere release which contains the fix and must upgrade to it to get the fix. While if guest side(at least in guest os GA build) can fix it, customer will not encounter the failure at all. Certainly, where the fix goes to is case by case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2039206 Title: open-vm-tools "hwclock" needed for VM guest customization not available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/2039206/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
