shield Recommended update for open-vm-tools
slessp4-open-vm-tools-13914

This update for open-vm-tools provides the following fixes: - Handle Linux kernel /proc FS uint32 type stat overflow when calculating. On both 32-bit and 64-bit Linux, tools always parses Linux kernel /proc FS stats as uint64 values. For rate stats, current - previous can handle uint64 type stat overflow, but not uint32 type. (bsc#1110793) - Optional override for short and long OS names sent from Tools. Added support for customers to override the returned long and short OS names through the tools config file. If the setting is present, then names gathered by hostinfo will be ignored. The user is responsible for setting the appropriate names. (bsc#1047469) - Workaround false negative results when detecting cloud-init existence. The command "cloud-init -v" is used to detect if cloud-init is properly configured and it works on most linux distros. However in some linux distros, "cloud-init -v" will print the result to stderr instead of stdout giving a false negative result. (bsc#1111619) - Update to version 10.3.0, including the following fixes (bsc#1109185): * Build fixes. * Disable CAF. Added logic on Windows to close the socket opened when checking if the tunnel has been enabled. (bsc#1096343)
