    My second question is what i steh last vmware tools version to support windows 2003R2

    Thanks

    Jonathan

    Hello,

    You dont have any problem to deploy different tools version on the same datasotre.

    Effectively, you can follow the link, to know wath's the las t tools versions, but I think the best way is just listen your vcenter :smileyhappy:

    When you select your VM un resume tab you cans see if your tools are uptodate for your vcenter
