Secure Connect Gateway 5.x — Virtual Edition User's Guide

Enable VMware tools

Prerequisites

Secure connect gateway must be deployed on a VMware ESXi hypervisor.

About this task

VMware Tools is a suite of utilities that enhances the performance of the virtual machine guest operating system and improves management of the virtual machine. Without VMware Tools installed in your guest operating system, guest performance lacks important functionality. Installing VMware Tools allows you to remotely manage the local system through a VMware console. It also enables the balloon driver that allows the VMware host kernel to manage the memory available.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > Environment configuration > Gateway configuration > Enable VMware Tools.
  2. Select the Enable check box.
  3. Click Apply.
