Install VMware-tools for Centos 6.3

At EXSi there, right click on the server > Guest > install/upgrade VMware tools
after that enter to the server console

# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
# cd /mnt
# cp VMwareTools-xxx.tar.gz  /root/
# cd  /root
# tar -zxvf VMwareTools-xxx.tar.gz
# cd vmware-tools-distrib
# ./vmware-install.pl

just click enter until the end

if you received error saying to locate the c compiler
just make a yum update kernel and kernel-devel, then re-run the installer again

# yum update kernel
# /sbin/shutdown -r now

# ./vmware-install.pl
