写的比较详细，但是vm版本较旧。
2：通过共享文件夹功能
虚拟机VMware提供了在宿主机与虚拟机系统之间交换文件的共享文件夹（Shared Folder）功能。不管虚拟机操作系统是Linux还是Windows都可用。你可以通过设置（ Settings）>共享文件夹（Shared Folder）来设置。但是此功能选项必须要安装虚拟机工具（VMware Tools），否则如下所示，否则该功能选项不可用。
安装虚拟机工具步骤如下所示：
1：在对应虚拟机的设置选项（Settings)下，为虚拟机光驱指定虚拟机系统的镜像文件。 注意：在执行下面步骤前，必须确保虚拟机的电源开启、虚拟机系统正在运行。
2：在VM下选择"Install VMware Tools".
然后安装虚拟机组件工具，详细步骤如下所示：
[root@DB-Server ~]# cd /mnt
[root@DB-Server mnt]# mkdir cdrom
[root@DB-Server mnt]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
[root@DB-Server mnt]# cd /mnt/cdrom

is going to create it, including needed parent directories. Is this what you
want? [yes]
The installation of VMware Tools 8.8.2 build-590212 for Linux completed
successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any
time by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-tools.pl".
Before running VMware Tools for the first time, you need to configure it by
invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config-tools.pl". Do you want
this program to invoke the command for you now? [yes]

You must restart your X session before any mouse or graphics changes take
effect.
You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd" from the
command line or by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox" from the command line
during an X server session.
To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.

官网关于手工安装升级虚拟机的文档如下所示：
Manually Install or Upgrade VMware Tools in a Linux Virtual Machine
For Linux virtual machines, you manually install or upgrade VMware Tools by using the command line.
Install the latest version of VMware Tools to enhance the performance of the virtual machine's guest operating system and improve virtual machine management. When you power on a virtual machine, if a new version of VMware Tools is available, you see a notification in the status bar of the guest operating system.
Prerequisites
■ Power on the virtual machine.
■ Verify that the guest operating system is running.
■ Because the VMware Tools installer is written in Perl, verify that Perl is installed in the guest operating system.
Procedure
1 On the host, from the Workstation menu bar, select VM > Manage > Install VMware Tools.
If an earlier version of VMware Tools is installed, the menu item is Update VMware Tools.
2 In the virtual machine, log in to the guest operating system as root and open a terminal window.
3 Run the mount command with no arguments to determine whether your Linux distribution automatically mounted the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image.
If the CD-ROM device is mounted, the CD-ROM device and its mount point are listed as something like this:
/dev/cdrom on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev)4 If the VMware Tools virtual CD-ROM image is not mounted, mount the CD-ROM drive.
a If a mount point directory does not already exist, create it.
mkdir /mnt/cdromSome Linux distributions use different mount point names. For example, on some distributions the mount point is /media/VMware Tools rather than /mnt/cdrom. Modify the command to reflect the conventions that your distribution uses.
b Mount the CD-ROM drive.
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdromSome Linux distributions use different device names or organize the /dev directory differently. If your CD-ROM drive is not /dev/cdrom or if the mount point for a CD-ROM is not /mnt/cdrom, modify the command to reflect the conventions that your distribution uses.
5 Change to a working directory (for example, /tmp).
cd /tmp
6 Delete any previous vmware-tools-distrib directory before you install VMware Tools.
The location of this directory depends on where you placed it during the previous installation. Often this directory is placed in /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib.
7 List the contents of the mount point directory and note the filename of the VMware Tools tar installer.
ls mount-point8 Uncompress the installer.
tar zxpf /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-x.x.x-yyyy.tar.gzThe value x.x.x is the product version number, and yyyy is the build number of the product release.
If you attempt to install a tar installation over an RPM installation, or the reverse, the installer detects the previous installation and must convert the installer database format before continuing.
9 If necessary, unmount the CD-ROM image.
umount /dev/cdrom If your Linux distribution automatically mounted the CD-ROM, you do not need to unmount the image.
10 Run the installer and configure VMware Tools.
cd vmware-tools-distrib./vmware-install.plUsually, the vmware-config-tools.pl configuration file runs after the installer file finishes running.
11 Respond to the prompts by pressing Enter to accept the default values, if appropriate for your configuration.
12 Follow the instructions at the end of the script.
Depending on the features you use, these instructions can include restarting the X session, restarting networking, logging in again, and starting the VMware User process. You can alternatively reboot the guest operating system to accomplish all these tasks.
What to do next
If a new virtual hardware version is available for the virtual machine, upgrade the virtual hardware.
然后在Options > Shared Folders下选择“Always enabled"选项。当然你也可以选择"Enabled until next power off or suspend"选项
此时在/mnt/hgfs下就会有一个tmp目录，在主机往E:VMWARE下拷贝文件就能在Linux系统/mnt/hgfs/tmp目录下访问这些文件了。
对于虚拟机系统是Windows平台的，可以如下设置。然后接下来也是一些大家所熟知的基本配置.
