This bug was fixed in the package open-vm-tools - 2:10.3.5-3 --------------- open-vm-tools (2:10.3.5-3) unstable; urgency=medium
[ Christian Ehrhardt ] * [d3d4703] Start vgauth before vmtoolsd. VGAuthService needs to be ready when vmtoolsd runs. Certain cases - e.g. Site Recovery Manager failover - will need vgauth to be up. Therefore add an After=vgauth.service dependency to open-vm-tools.service To have vgauth be able start early - and not pull cloud-init back late - it is also required to drop default dependencies which according to VMware is fine to do so.
