This tutorial will show you how to install VMware Workstation Pro 14 on RHEL/CentOS 7, Fedora 22-27, Debian 7-9, Ubuntu 18.04-14.14 and Linux Mint 17-18.
VMware Workstation Pro 14 is a popular software which allows you to run multiple different virtual machines on physical hosts using the concept of Type II of hypervisors (Hosted Hypervisors). This tutorial also discuss some common issues during the installation process.
What is new in VMware Workstation Pro 14
- Support for Windows 10 Creators Update as a virtual machine and host operating system with auto detect and easy install.
- New Guest operating system support for Ubuntu 17.04, Fedora 26, CentOS 7.4, RHEL 7.4, Debian 9.1, Oracle Linux 7.4, SLE 12 SP3 and OpenSUSE 42.3.

- Support for renaming virtual network in the Virtual Network Editor for better organization.
- Support for ESXi Host Power Operations such as Shutdown, Restart and Enter/Exit Maintenance Mode.
- With improved OVF/OVA support for testing and experimentation within Workstation.
- Scan for Virtual Machines in local folders as well as on network shared storage and USB drives.
- Automatically Suspend Shared Virtual Machines Upon Host Shutdown.
- New GTK+ 3 based UI for Linux.
- There is also some another few features which you will discover by practice and make hands on labs.
Prerequisites
- Make sure that your system is 64-bit “VMware Doesn’t provide 32-bit edition” and its virtualization feature is enabled.
- Unfortunately, the 14th edition doesn’t support 32-bit processors may be due to the features improvements which need the higher level of processor BUT VMware didn’t talk about specific reasons.
- Make sure you have a license key to active the product OR you will work in the evaluation mode “the same features but with ONLY 30 day period” after evaluation mode period ends YOU MUST enter a license key to active the product.
- Before you begin this guide, you will need the root account OR non-root user with sudo privileges configured on your system (Physical host).
- Make sure your system and its kernel is up to date.
Step 1: Downloading VMware Workstation 14 Pro
1. First login into your server as root or non-root user with sudo permissions and run the following command to keep your system up-to-date.
He said his Grandfather gave him the name because he does most things well, music included. Wiz khalifa real name. Khalifa claimed in an interview that he smokes daily and spent an average of $10,000 monthly on Cannabis.Religious BeliefThe religion of Khalifa is considered unclear, but he claimed his grandfather is a Muslim. Khalifa’s grandfather who is a Muslim gave him the name. Since Khalifa is Arabic word that is translated to be “successor” and wisdom. We may assume that Wiz Khalifa is a Muslim, but never identify himself with any religion whatsoever.Political ViewsWiz does not say much about his political affiliation.
2. Next, download the software from VMware official site. You will download script file like “VMware-Workstation-Full-14.1.1-7528167.x86_64.bundle”, by default this script file downloaded without execute permission, so you will need to set execute permission on it.
3. After downloading script file, go to the directory which contains the script file and make sure that script file is exist and have default permissions.
4. Give permission execute for all “for security reasons you may need to give the permission for the owner user only NOT for all”.
5. After setting permission, make sure to check the permissions again.
Step 2: Installing VMWare Workstation 14 Pro in Linux
6. The installation process follows a straight-forward steps, just issue following command to run the script file.
7. Once the script is running, you see the following window the screen.
Just follow the one screen instructions until “Installation was successful” message appears.

Step 3: Running VMWare Workstation 14 Pro
8. To start the software for fist time you will find some issues as discussed below with fixes. To start the software type vmware in the terminal.
After running above command, if you don’t have GCC GNU C Compiler, you will see the message which notify you to install gcc compiler and some components. Just press ‘Cancel‘ to continue.
VMWare Kernel Module Updater
9. Return to the terminal, then lets install “Development tools”.
10. When it finished, lets try to start the software again.

This time another issue will be appear, its talk about kernel-headers, select “cancel” and lets check if it installed or not.
If nothing appears install it using.
11. For further reasons which out of this tutorial scope, we will need to install another package “Kernel-devel”.
Install Vmware Tools On Debian 8
12. When it finished, lets try to start the software again “be patient, trust me .it will be the last one ;)”.
Congratulations! we have solved all issues, you will see this window.
VMWare WorkStation Starting
It makes some modification in kernel modules and compiling some new tools just fewer minutes, the application start and home window appears and waits from you to kick start it and make your virtual machines.
Conclusion
Congratulations everything has done successfully, you should use in-deep the new features of the NEW edition of VMware Workstation 14 Pro, Do your labs and across Virtualization Ocean, GOod LuCk.

The following feature distribution map indicates the features that are present in each version. The known issues and workarounds for each distribution are listed after the table.
Table legend
Built in - LIS are included as part of this Linux distribution. The Microsoft-provided LIS download package doesn't work for this distribution so do not install it. The kernel module version numbers for the built in LIS (as shown by lsmod, for example) are different from the version number on the Microsoft-provided LIS download package. A mismatch does not indicate that the built in LIS is out of date.

Notes
Creating file systems on VHDs larger than 2TB is not supported.
On Windows Server 2008 R2 SCSI disks create 8 different entries in /dev/sd*.
Windows Server 2012 R2 a VM with 8 cores or more will have all interrupts routed to a single vCPU.
Starting with Debian 8.3 the manually-installed Debian package 'hyperv-daemons' contains the key-value pair, fcopy, and VSS daemons. On Debian 7.x and 8.0-8.2 the hyperv-daemons package must come from Debian backports.
Live virtual machine backup will not work with ext2 file systems. The default layout created by the Debian installer includes ext2 filesystems, you must customize the layout to not create this filesystem type.
While Debian 7.x is out of support and uses an older kernel, the kernel included in Debian backports for Debian 7.x has improved Hyper-V capabilities.
On Windows Server 2012 R2 Generation 2 virtual machines have secure boot enabled by default and some Linux virtual machines will not boot unless the secure boot option is disabled. You can disable secure boot in the Firmware section of the settings for the virtual machine in Hyper-V Manager or you can disable it using Powershell:
The latest upstream kernel capabilities are only available by using the kernel included Debian backports.
