vyos-open-vm-tools: disable sync driver by default to prevent crashing
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Update /etc/vmware-tools/tools.conf to include enableSyncDriver = false
in order to disable filesystem freezing by default.  This is a
temporary workaround until the underlying issue can be resolved, but it
at least prevents a total lock up of the VM when it is backed up with
filesystem quiescing enabled on the host.
