Where do I find VMtools for 10.5 on BE7K

[tknapp]

Where do I find VM Tools for ESXI 5.1 that is shipped with Cisco Collaboration 10.5? 

Platform is BE7K.

I cannot find a link that works and searching is worthless.

The VMTools are already built-into ESXi, not sure what you're asking here.

I understand that the VM TOOLS are in the ESXI.  Reloading the Host and bringing up the VMs and now they are showing that VM TOOLS are good.

I am also working on a 10.0 NFR version for a lab environment.  The CUCM/UC/IM units are all showing that the VM TOOLS are Running OUT of Date.  I am now trying to find the ESXI update for them.  Do I find that on a ESXI 5.1 IOS disk??

No, I really meant they are built-into ESXi, the image your server is running, HAS the vmtools

The installers for VMware Tools for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and NetWare guest operating systems are built into VMware Workstation as ISO image files. (An ISO image file looks like a CD-ROM to your guest operating system and even appears as a CD-ROM in Windows Explorer. You do not use an actual CD-ROM to install VMware Tools, nor do you need to download the CD-ROM image or burn a physical CD-ROM of this image file.)
