The VMware Guest Operating System
Service
When you install VMware Tools in a virtual machine, the VMware guest operating
system service is one of the primary components installed. The guest service can do
the following:
• Execute commands in the virtual machine when it is requested to halt or reboot
the guest operating system.
• Gracefully power off and reset a virtual machine.
• Send a heartbeat to VMware ESX Server so that it knows the guest operating
system is running.
• Synchronize the time of the guest operating system with the time on the
physical computer.
• Pass a string from the console operating system to the guest operating system.
The guest service starts automatically when you boot the guest operating system.
In a Linux guest, the guest service is called vmware-guestd. To display help about
the guest service, including a list of all options, use the following command:
/etc/vmware/vmware-guestd --help
In a Windows guest, the guest service program file is called VMwareService.exe.
To display help, right-click the VMware Tools icon in the system tray and choose Help.
Synchronizing the Time Between the Guest and Console
Operating Systems
The guest service can synchronize the date and time between the guest and console
operating systems once every second. In the VMware Tools control panel, on the
Other tab (Options in a Linux guest), select Time synchronization between the
virtual machine and the host operating system.
