Using Vagrant with VMware VSphere

$

Hello All,

 

I am trying to use Vagrant to provision a VM using VSphere. I am able to get the machine to provision and start up, but I noticed that Vagrant is unable to connect to the virtual machine once it has started. I have tracked this down to the hostname not updating. If I restart the VM, the hostname change takes effect. I am using a Custom Specification to change the VM's hostname upon provisioning. I have VMWare Tools installed on the Template and the Operating System is Debian 7.

 

For reference, I am using this plugin to utilize VSphere with Vagrant. Here is my VagrantFile

 

username = nil
password = nil


if File.exist?("config.yml")
    require 'yaml'    config = YAML::load(File.open('config.yml'))    username = config['username']    password = config['password']
end




Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box     = 'vsphere'  config.vm.box_url = 'https://vagrantcloud.com/ssx/boxes/vsphere-dummy/versions/0.0.1/providers/vsphere.box'  config.vm.hostname = ENV['USERNAME'].downcase + "-cmui"  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: "hostname " + config.vm.hostname  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: "service network restart"  config.vm.provider :vsphere do |vsphere|    vsphere.host                    = ''    vsphere.compute_resource_name   = 'Dev cluster'    vsphere.template_name           = 'cm_dev_ui_template'    vsphere.name                    = ENV['USERNAME'].downcase + "-cmui"    vsphere.user                    = username    vsphere.password                = password    vsphere.insecure                = true    vsphere.customization_spec_name = "cm-ui-dev"  end
end

 

Thanks for any help.
