Hello
yea, any time you installed a new kernel on el5, you had to reinstall vmware tools, kind of a pain. on newer systems, this seems less neccessary.

Perhaps this is related to the vmxnet3 hardware/drivers in EL5. We had problems (loss of some packets) using vmxnet in EL6 VMs on ESXi 6.0
hypervisor and had to switch our VMs to the e1000 NIC hardware type in ESXi. This resolved our issues.
