一般vmware的虚拟机选项里面有安装vmtool的选项，但是此选项有可能失效，下面是手动下载vmtool源码包文件，并在linux 虚拟机里面安装的方法
vmare下手动编译二进制文件装vmtool
$ git clone https://github.com/rasa/vmware-tools-patches.git
$ cd vmware-tools-patches
$ ./patched-open-vm-tools.sh
Patch VMware Tools source code for a variety of VMware Tools and kernel versions.
Quickest Start (The easiest way)
$ git clone https://github.com/rasa/vmware-tools-patches.git
$ cd vmware-tools-patches
$ ./patched-open-vm-tools.sh
The above script has been provided which generally should always work, automatically invoking commands described in the following section "Quick Start"
To update and re-patch later, remove the vmware-tools-patches subdirectory with the previous download and re-run the script.
