the question is: do you use the vmware-tools from server 2.0 and if you do so, how did you manage it?
No, we are running server 1.0.8 for our OpenBSD vmware installations. We have some laptops with our Windows client software that needs fast access to a database on an OpenBSD server. All setup for evaluation of the whole packet. So we need the ability to gracefully shutdown the vm if the laptop is powered down. The vm must start when the laptop is started. It is a setup for users with low skills on computers (medical personel mostly), so the ability to start and shut down a vm is not something I can expect.
OpenBSD 4.4 or newer will run happily with the vmware server 2.0, but no automatic shutdown is a real show stopper.
Kind regards Markus
