Has anyone dealt with bugID
CSCul78735 lately?
We just installed our latest round of VMware 5.5 patches. Along with it came 
new VMtools. Usual (automatic) upgrade method did not work. The VMware tools 
status went from 'out of date' to 'not installed'

We were able to get the tools installed on our two subscribers by switching 
SELinux to permissive mode as the bug describes. We switched them back to 
enforcing. Then, we found that the active partition filled over the next 2 days 
before the subscriber died a horrible death and had to be rebuilt.

I believe that /var and /etc/selinux had most of the runaway logs. TAC couldn't 
even create a root support account because the partition was full.

Just a caution to those who patch VMware regularly. Make sure you have alerting 
on filesystem capacity. Ours were 2500 user nodes so there's only ~3 GB free on 
the active partition normally.

I would be very interested if anyone has further info on this bug.
