Vagrant with Ansible Provisioner on Windows

Vagrant with Ansible Provisioner on Windows

Long story short, ansible does not work on a Windows control machine, so you basically have to:

  • either run ansible --connection=local ... in the target vm
  • set up a separate control vm where ansible is installed via shell provisioner

Below are Vagrantfile examples for both approaches

Within the Target VM

Rsync over SSH - (40MB/s over 1GB NICs)

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

  • a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
  • H: preserves hard-links
  • A: preserves ACLs
