Per condividere una directory tra host e VM occorre prima accedere a vmware "Virtual Machine Settings" e spostarsi su "Options".
In questo tab accedere a "Shared Folders" e configurare una directory di cui fare lo share.
Lato Ubuntu una volta configurato vmware effettuare la configurazione del file fstab. Ma prima occorre configurare i tools di vmware su Ubuntu.
Eseguire il seguente comando per abilitare i tools:
- sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools open-vm-tools-desktop
A questo punto accedere al file fstab ed aggiungere la stringa che permette la mount della directory presente sull'host.
- sudo vi /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda3 during installation
UUID=dad2f2d1-2c0a-4e88-831c-67a122f0572c / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /boot/efi was on /dev/sda2 during installation
UUID=DA2B-A740 /boot/efi vfat umask=0077 0 1
/swapfile none swap sw 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
A questo punto aggiungere al termine del file la stringa che permette di effettuare la mount della directory host:
.host:/ORACLE_PROJECT /mnt/hgfs/ORACLE_PROJECT/ fuse.vmhgfs-fuse defaults,allow_other,uid=1000 0 0
Salvare il file e creare la directory indicata sopra:
- cd /mnt/hgfs
- mkdir ORACLE_PROJECT
A questo punto fare un test eseguendo il comando :
- mount -a
Se tutto ok allora avremo effettuato correttamente la mount.
