Description John Wolfe 2023-03-10 02:30:12 UTC 
open-vm-tools 12.2.0 was released on Mar 7, 2023.

There are no new features in the open-vm-tools 12.2.0 release. This is primarily a maintenance release that addresses a few critical problems, including:

  *  Linux quiesced snapshots have been updated to avoid intermittent hangs of the vmtoolsd process.

  *  Updated the guestOps to handle some edge cases when File_GetSize() fails or returns -1.

  *  A number of Coverity reported issues have been addressed.

  *  FreeBSD: Support newer releases and code clean-up for earlier versions.

     Pull request #584 - https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/pull/584
