Hi all,

I just released the first version of my ESXi5 Community Packaging Tools. These are two scripts:

  • tgz2vib5.cmd (to convert a TGZ file to a VIB file, formerly included with ESXi-Customizer)
  • vib2zip.cmd (to combine one or more VIB files into an Offline Bundle ZIP)

These scripts can be used by Community developers (who provide e.g. drivers for unsupported Whitebox hardware) to package their software into VMware proprietary formats.

Go, read anything you want to know about these tools (and the different formats that they handle), and download them on the project page.

Attention, Community Developers: This page contains important information on how to properly package your drivers etc., so don't miss it!
