How to allow In-guest VMware tools update?

$

I'm looking for a solution to enable end users of Windows virtual machines in a vSphere environment to update VMware tools on their own, they will have no access to the vSphere management layer.

 

I've seen reference  to using the vmware-toolbox-cmd command. Upon trying that I get the following error:

 

 

C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools> .\VMwareToolboxCmd.exe upgrade status

A new version of VMware Tools is available.

 

C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools> .\VMwareToolboxCmd.exe upgrade start

The host does not support auto upgrade of VMware Tools.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Many thanks
