Usage
The Vagrant VMware providers are used just like any other provider. Please read the general basic usage page for providers.
The value to use for the --provider flag is vmware_fusion for VMware
Fusion, and vmware_workstation for VMware Workstation.
The Vagrant VMware provider does not support parallel execution at this time.
Specifying the --parallel option will have no effect.
To get started, create a new Vagrantfile that points to a VMware box:
# vagrant init hashicorp/precise64
Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
end
VMware Fusion users should then run:
$ vagrant up --provider vmware_fusion
VMware Workstation users should then run:
$ vagrant up --provider vmware_workstation
This will download and bring up a new VMware Fusion/Workstation virtual machine in Vagrant.
Note: At some point in the future, the providers will probably be merged into a single `vagrant-vmware` plugin. For now, the Workstation and Fusion codebases are different enough that they are separate plugins.
