shield Recommended update for open-vm-tools
SUSE-SLE-Module-Basesystem-15-SP7-2025-2210

This update for open-vm-tools fixes the following issues: - Update to open-vm-tools 13.0.0 based on build 24696409. (bsc#1245169): There are no new features in the open-vm-tools 13.0.0 release. This is primarily a maintenance release that addresses a few issues, including: + The vm-support script has been updated to collect the open-vm-tools log files from the Linux guest and information from the systemd journal. + Github pull requests has been integrated and issues fixed. Please see the Resolved Issues section of the Release Notes. - Add patch: Currently the "telinit 6" command is used to reboot a Linux VM following Guest OS Customization. As the classic Linux init system, SysVinit, is deprecated in favor of a newer init system, systemd, the telinit command may not be available on the base Linux OS. This change adds support to Guest OS Customization for the systemd init system. If the modern init system, systemd, is available, then a "systemctl reboot" command will be used to trigger reboot. Otherwise, the "telinit 6" command will be used assuming the traditional init system, SysVinit, is still available. - Drop patch now contained in 13.0.0: - Ran /usr/lib/obs/service/source_validators/helpers/fix_changelog to fix changes file where source validator was failing.
