This is here for upgrading VMware tools:
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/VMware_Tools

Note the Docwiki has a link to the developer wiki for this.  (Actually, two
links in the following section)

http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Implementing_Virtualization_Deployments#Installing_UC_Applications_in_the_VM


Removing the -dev from the link appears to make them work
