A while back VMware decided to upstream their VMware-tools to the Linux Community. On a final note, it is important to also install the VMware tools or the Open-VM-Tools (OVT). So there are plenty of reasons why I like this deployment. Let’s say for example we want to protect virtual machines running in Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS we still have the option to deploy the Veeam Agent on such VMs and leverage the Backup and Restore operations as intended. ![]() ![]() In fact Veeam Agents can also be used for virtual workloads running into the Cloud. ![]() Now the fact this is a VM does not limit the option to install a “physical agent” in order to protect this particular VM. Last but least also the option to install the Veeam Agent to test Backup and Restore. also the fact I will re-utilise this VM again as Linux Backup Repository for Veeam Backup & Replication in my home lab. What I really like about this installation is the fact that this particular VM will sit on the HPE StoreVirtual Datastore. In particular this will focus on the configuration steps within a VMware vSphere environment including the setup for Open-VM-tools. In this article we are going to cover the main steps to install Linux Ubuntu in a VMware environment.
