Simple utilities for VMWare guest support for OS/2

This includes LGPL code from https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools for the backdoor API for VMWare.

Prerequisites

os2-guest needs watcom 1.9 for OS/2

Get the source

  • Clone the repository then build with wmake.
git clone https://github.com/wwiv/os2-guest

Building

wmake

Running

Just run vmtoolsd.exe

If you would like debug logs, add -D# and -Llogfilename to the commandline of vmtoolsd.exe where # is a number from 1-10, the higher number the more log data that will be written to the file specified by the -L parameter.

os2-guest's Issues

Thank you!

Maybe I overlooked the way to contact you. But I would like to thank you for developing the VMware tools for OS/2.

C++ not needed, neither is ASM

Looking at this, there's nothing in here that needs C++, to make the binary smaller, should just use C.

Also the asm code is trivial, so using #pragma aux would be easier, also could be easy to use the high bandwith API (aka use outsb and insb) to add more capabilities.

Are these tools supposed to work on ESXi server....

Hello,

The addon works on VMware workstation. But they do not work under ESXi server. Is this a known issue are they not supposed to work under ESXi server ? I tried this under ESXi server 7.0.

Thank you,

Roderick

make log module

Right now it's just copy/paste. Also add ability to log to a file, this will help with debugging detached issues.
lastly add ability to set the debug level on the commandline not in code

doesn't work in RUN= line

I think we need to switch it to a PM app up front, and not just set it to be one after start so that OS2 will wait until the shell starts to actually start it.
