I installed open-vm-tools; rebooted virtual machine, and edited
/etc/init.d/vmtoolsd as follows:
echo -n "Shutting down vmtoolsd "
## Stop daemon with killproc(8) and if this fails
## killproc sets the return value according to LSB.
/sbin/killproc -TERM $VMTOOLSD_BIN
umount /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint
# modprobe -r vmblock
# modprobe -r vmsync
# modprobe -r vmmemctl
# Remember status and be verbose
rc_status -v
"rpm -e open-vm-tools" failed. Cause: /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint could not be
unmounted. [Note: I did not check to see if /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint was
ever created before I tried to remove open-vm-tools. I also did not verify that
the three modules (vmblock, vmsync and vmmemctl) were installed.]
I commented out "umount /proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint" and "rpm -e open-vm-tools"
successfully ran to completion.
