  • 1.  Unable to find the vmware-mount command on latest VDDK

    Posted Oct 23, 2018 02:54 PM

    H Team,

    I tried to download the latest VDDK "VMware-vix-disklib-6.7.0-8173251.x86_64.tar.gz". After extracting it i did not find the vmware-mount command for linux version.

    Please let me know what is the alternate for vmware-mount command in latest VDDK.

    i can find vmware-mount  utility in VMware-vix-disklib-5.0.0-427917.x86_64.tar.gz and not in any latest release.

    Also i tried to compile the sample "vixdisklibsample" and there i dont see any option for vmdk mount.

    Thanks

    Kalai

    Hi,

    We are not a team, only a community :smileywink:

    I can see the latest one is 6.7 as you mentioned, in the official web page you can check it: Virtual Disk Development Kit (VDDK) - VMware {code}

    Did you check the documentation if the vmware-mount command was removed from latest releases?

    I checked myself and vmware-mount was removed, the latest release with the command is on 5.5 version.

    So, if you want to download it: Virtual Disk Development Kit - VMware {code}
