Vagrant(1)Installation and Try Simple Command

1. Introduction and Installation
Vagrant is based on Ruby, calling VirtualBox and etc virtual system API to provide us a virtual system.

VirtualBox Installation
I already have the latest virtual box from oracle website.

Vagrant Installation
Download the right software for me, version 1.6.3 for MAC OS.
http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html

Check the Installation
>vagrant version
Installed Version: 1.6.3 Latest Version: 1.6.3  You're running an up-to-date version of Vagrant!

Create a home directory
>mkdir /Users/carl/vagrant

Download the box 
We can find the box list from here http://www.vagrantbox.es/

Add the box
>vagrant box add win7 http://vagrantboxes.devopslive.org/windows-7-enterprise-i386.box

win7 is the name of the box, the last URL is the box’s URL from box list. This URL can be a local box file.

or 

>vagrant box add local ./local-dev.box

After the command, the box files will be place under this directory. /Users/carl/.vagrant.d/boxes

Init our system
>vagrant init
the default is init the base, if we did not use the default name base. We need to use
>vagrant init local

Start the Server
>vagrant up

SSH to that server
>vagrant ssh

Shutdown the Server
>vagrant halt

2. Vagrantfile Configuration
config.vm.box = “base” // the name of the box

  # config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|  #   # Don't boot with headless mode  #   vb.gui = true  #  #   # Use VBoxManage to customize the VM. For example to change memory:  #   vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"]  # end

Configure the memory and GUI.

Network configuration
# config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080

  # Create a private network, which allows host-only access to the machine  # using a specific IP.  # config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10"

  # Create a public network, which generally matched to bridged network.  # Bridged networks make the machine appear as another physical device on  # your network.  # config.vm.network "public_network"

Share the directory
# config.vm.synced_folder "../data", "/vagrant_data"

3. Useful Command
vagrant box add URL or FILE

vagrant init

vagrant up

vagrant ssh

vagrant box list // list all the boxes we have

vagrant box remove //remove the box

vagrant destroy //destroy this VM

vagrant halt //turn off the power of that vm

vagrant package //package the current vm

Usually vagrant will use chef and puppet doing the provisioning.
>vagrant provision

vagrant reload //reload the vm

vagrant resume // resume the vm

vagrant status //check the current status

vagrant suspend // save the current state and stop the vm

4. Use Win7
Error Message
The guest operating system of the machine could not be detected!

Solution:
Change the configuration, give more memory, change the network to be public, enable the GUI.
  config.vm.network "public_network"
config.vm.synced_folder "../data", "/vagrant_data"
  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|     # Don't boot with headless mode     vb.gui = true      # Use VBoxManage to customize the VM. For example to change memory:     vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "2048" ]     vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, '--audio', 'coreaudio', '--audiocontroller', 'hda']     vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--vram", "128"]     vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--accelerate3d", "on"]  end
