O serviço está conectado ao recurso de VM compartilhada remota do VMWare Workstation 8 +
You can share virtual machines with remote users in this version of Workstation. When you install VMware Workstation 8.x and later, virtual machine sharing and remote access are enabled by default. This feature is called VMware Workstation Server, and it starts when the host system starts.
A shared virtual machine can be accessed remotely by other instances of Workstation 8.x and later. Working remotely, you can create a new shared virtual machine, convert a standard virtual machine, or create a shared virtual machine clone of a standard virtual machine to the Server where the VMware Host Agent service manages them.
