Hi;

 

I am running a RHEL 7.4 Linux Guest under VMWare workstation 14.0 (on a Windows 7 host).

 

I installed the vmware Guest tools (VMwareTools-10.1.15-6627299) and noticed the following warning from the tools installation:

 

...

Creating a new initrd boot image for the kernel.

 

Broadcast message from systemd-journald@XXXX-oc7 (Thu 2017-11-23 16:59:39 EST):

 

dracut[42875]: Failed to install module i915vmxnet3

 

 

Message from syslogd@XXXX-oc7 at Nov 23 16:59:39 ...

dracut:Failed to install module i915vmxnet3

The configuration of VMware Tools 10.1.6 build-5214329 for Linux for this

running kernel completed successfully.

 

Is something wrong or can this be ignored?

 

I am running open-vm-tools-10.1.5-3.el7.x86_64 in the guest, but as far as I can tell I also need to install the vmware guest tools to be able to get the shared folder support (/mnt/hgfs/......).

 

Thanks.

 

P.S.: This is running Guest hardware version 12.x
