Running vSphere 5.0 and I install tools from the VMware tar.gz file with ' vmware-install-tools.pl -d' it seems to do all the usual/right things. Once completed there is no 'vmware-tools' listed in 'chkconfig --list'. A reboot of the box leaves vmware tools not running.
Did you check that the init script is really not there? ll /etc/init.d/vmware-tools If it is there, you just need to run: chkconfig --add vmware-tools chkconfig vmware-tools on
