Chez Eranea, pour nos
projets de transcodage et de migration d'applications, nous utilisons beaucoup VMWare Workstation pour tester simplement et efficacement des configurations-cibles nouvelles (système isolé, ensemble de machines interconnectées, etc.). C'est extrêmement efficace au sein de l'équipe: l'un prépare les machines virtuelles puis les passent aux autres membres de l'équipe par simple copie de fichiers. Beaucoup de temps d'installations de base à répliquer économisés !
Dans cet objectif, je viens de passer pas mal de temps à faire fonctionner la fonction de dossiers partagés entre host et guest, tous 2 sur Ubuntu 13.04 avec VMWare Workstation 9.0. Ce n'est pas encore opérationnel de base sûrement à cause de la nouveauté de Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" (i.e
Le Bassaris): un incident est ouvert chez VMWare :
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/227866
Alors, voilà ci-dessous comment je m'en suis finalement sorti en attendant. Si cela peut faire gagner du temps à d'autres...
Par défaut, les VMWare Tools installés par WMWare WS9 ne permettent pas l'accès aux dossiers partagés : le module kernel nommé vmhgfs qu'ils devraient intégrer au noyau lors de leur installation ne l'est finalement pas : un simple lsmod | grep vmhgfs le prouve.
Une réinstallation des outils via l'onglet VM > Reinstall VmWare Tools ne donne rien même après reconstruction du noyau Linux.
Voici donc le bon chemin: (en tout cas pour moi...)
- sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools
- sudo mkdir /mnt/hgfs
- sudo mount -t vmhgfs .host:/ /mnt/hgfs
Ci-après se trouve le journal de mes réponses aux questions posées lors de l'installation de open-vm-tools pour que vous puissiez comparer.
Après l'installation de open-vm-tools, lsmod | grep vmhgfs confirme la présence de vmhgfs et donc le mount va au out et les dossiers partagés apparaissent.
Good luck !
