Is it possible to install vmware tools on the virtual machine running SWG VA Images?

Products

Issue/Introduction

We like to know if we can install VMware tools on our virtual appliances when running the latest release 7.3.13.3

Resolution

Please note that SWG VA supports VMotion, Distributed Resource Scheduling (DRS), High Availability (HA), clustering, and resource pools. However, SWG VA images, including the latest SGOS 7.3.13.3 release, do not support VMware Tools or the per-machine HA monitoring feature that is included with VMware Tools.
