Has anyone else seen this on Centos 6.x x64?
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.
I have tried completely uninstalling tools and re-installing, not difference.
Cheers.

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

Why not make this easy, install from an rpm from their repo... http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/index.html
