as im sure others have mentioned... right there at the main-result of search... Decomm at end-of-Jan-2025 open-vm-tools is not something that is even designed with obsd in mind... it is for linux (or maybe the compatibility-layer to linux in freebsd) primarily...
Note: Use of open-vm-tools with a OS distribution which is not listed under VMware Compatibility Guide must be certified by VMware.
imho - it seems fairly obvious that "certification from Broadcom" is not something that is interesting for obsd-devs... not an ISC/MIT-type licensing agreement, im sure... in particular, as a GUEST os in a vmware hypervisor - i doubt that there are hardware-guarantees that obsd (as opposed to actual h/w) wants to make... obsd has its own hypervisor vmd, which is well-supported for deploying further obsd-guests...
anyways, gl on your experiences with obsd... :-)
