I was now installing a test VM on 8.2.0 and I cannot find the ISO for the VM tools. I am for more than 7 years a Citrix user and usually the link [informing that VM Tools are not installed] in XenCenter opened an alert which inserted the ISO into the CD drive of the VM and the tools could be installed very simple.
Now the link which is opened from XenCenter confuses me a lot. I read there that
some archive must be downloaded,
extracted,
copied via a shared drive to the VM and
execute the script.
My question: Please, tell me I am blind and the ISO is somewhere and what I read is a Halloween joke which didn't land. I hope I am really wrong and someone of you guys can show me the real page where the link for the ISO is available. Of course, I know how to create an ISO from a folder but what is the next step? Forking the current Hypervisor branch from Github and compiling it with gcc before it can be installed?
Was the previous solution which inserted the ISO in the VM CD drive too complicated, who approves such decisions?
