I was installing an update to one of our (virtual) machines and noticed that it 
failed, complaining that an installation was in progress. Since sometimes SCCM 
and other things auto-drop for us, I figured I'd look to see what it was. With 
procexp, I found an msiexec -Embedding call being run. What exactly is msiexec 
-Embedding for? And am I correct in assuming it entails that while it runs I 
cannot do another installation? Do I wait on it? I see that it in turn launched 
a  C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools\TPVCGateway.exe" -q -uninstall ... 
(which has been running for quite a while now at 0% CPU to boot).
