Résoudre l’erreur ‘VM communication interface socket family: [FAILED]’ sur une VM Linux
Sur les vms avec une distribution linux, il peut vous arriver de constater que ces VMware-Tools sont KO (que les VMware-Tools sont arrêté). vous vous connecter sur votre serveur pour relancer les WMware-Tools, mais un message FAILED apparaît au redémarrage.

. [root@monsrv ~]# cd /etc/vmware-tools/ [root@monsrv vmware-tools]# ./services.sh start Checking acpi hot plug [ OK ] Starting VMware Tools services in the virtual machine: Switching to guest configuration: [ OK ] VM communication interface: [FAILED] VM communication interface socket family: [FAILED] Guest operating system daemon: [ OK ] VGAuthService: [ OK ] . |
Cette anomalie peut apparaître après la mise à jour du kernel de l’os de votre vm Linux. Le Kb VMware 2050592 décrit cette anomalie « VMware Tools fail to start after a Linux guest operating system kernel upgrade »
La résolution passe par la reconfiguration des VMware-Tools. Il faut donc stopper les VMware-Tools et les reconfigurer.
Pour stopper les VMware-Tools, positionner vous dans le répertoire des VMware-Tools « /etc/vmware-tools/« , puis exécuter la commande :
./services.sh stop

Puis, pour reconfigurer les VMware-Tools, lancer la commande :

Les VMware-Tools sont maintenant démarrer, un petit test d’arrêt et redémarrage des Tools montrera que l’anomalie est maintenant corrigée.
