Vagrant ESXi Provider

This is a Vagrant plugin for VMware ESXi.

NOTE: This is a work in progress, it's based on vagrant-vsphere and vagrant-aws, the documentation below is supplementary.

Usage

gem build vagrant-esxi.gemspec
vagrant plugin install vagrant-esxi

ESXi Host Setup

1. enable SSH
2. enable public key authentication, e.g. cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh root@host 'cat >> /etc/ssh/keys-root/authorized_keys'
3. set the license key (if you haven't done so already), e.g. ssh root@host vim-cmd vimsvc/license --set 'XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX'

Example Vagrantfile

config.vm.box = "precise64_vmware"
config.vm.box_url = "http://files.vagrantup.com/precise64_vmware.box"
config.vm.hostname = "precise64"

config.vm.provider :esxi do |esxi|
  esxi.name = "precise64"
  esxi.host = "host"
  esxi.datastore = "datastore1"
  esxi.user = "root"
  esxi.password = "Zkg1nJXM1sh19sw9uV6P"
end
