There are only a handful of commands that are useful when using rpctool; in fact, I can only think of two: . vmware-rpctool "info-set guestinfo.foo 1234" -> sets "guestinfo.foo" to "1234" . vmware-rpctool "info-get guestinfo.foo" -> prints "1234" These variables are kept on the host (and you can set guestinfo.* variables in the VM's .vmx file and retrieve them with this command). Off the top of my head, I can't think of any other RPC commands that are useful from the command line. -- - Marcelo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-discuss
