I know that open-vm-tools is maintained by vmware. I meant the Vmware repo is alway matching latest vSphere release.

But: - doesn't contain newer pv drivers - isn't on par with vSphere releases

For example: 9.4.6 Dyno Hongjun Fu hfu@vmware.com Release matching the vSphere 5.5p02 release. 9.4.0 Dmitry Torokhov dtor@vmware.com Release matching the vSphere 5.5 release.

There is no 9.4.6 rpm for C7 but we are running vSphere 5.5p02

Why? VMWare's rpm repo is well maintained until EL6.

I would use the open-vm-tools from EPEL in EL6 as well
