Using ubuntu/xenial64, I need to use a higher port number, since this box uses a second config disk, so I've got '--port', 4.
This was very helpful. I was seeing errors when Vagrant would try to connect the machine otherwise.
==> vm-0: Waiting for machine to boot. This may take a few minutes...

Things seemed to be working using port 2. I believe you can see which ports are in use on the base box by launching a single-disk configuration and looking at the output of vboxmanage showvminfo $VIRTUALBOX_VM_NAME
.
just to add, for Virtual box 5.1.12, you can get the controller by running;
14:26:04 $ VBoxManage storagectl
Usage:
VBoxManage storagectl <uuid|vmname>
--name <name>
[--add ide|sata|scsi|floppy|sas|usb|pcie]
[--controller LSILogic|LSILogicSAS|BusLogic|
IntelAHCI|PIIX3|PIIX4|ICH6|I82078|
[ USB|NVMe]
[--portcount <1-n>]
[--hostiocache on|off]
[--bootable on|off]
[--rename <name>]
[--remove]
Here is what worked for me
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
file_to_disk = 'D:/UniServerZ/www/VM/tealit.com/large_disk.vdi'
unless File.exist?(file_to_disk)
vb.customize ['createhd', '--filename', file_to_disk, '--size', 500 * 1024]
end
vb.customize ['storageattach', :id, '--storagectl', 'SATA Controller', '--port', 1, '--device', 0, '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', file_to_disk]
end
end
Here is my solution. It works with VBox 5.2
The disk is stored together with the Virtual Machine
class VagrantPlugins::ProviderVirtualBox::Action::SetName
alias_method :original_call, :call
def call(env)
machine = env[:machine]
driver = machine.provider.driver
uuid = driver.instance_eval { @uuid }
ui = env[:ui]
# Find out folder of VM
vm_folder = ""
vm_info = driver.execute("showvminfo", uuid, "--machinereadable")
lines = vm_info.split("\n")
lines.each do |line|
if line.start_with?("CfgFile")
vm_folder = line.split("=")[1].gsub('"','')
vm_folder = File.expand_path("..", vm_folder)
ui.info "VM Folder is: #{vm_folder}"
end
end
size = 10240
disk_file = vm_folder + "/disk1.vmdk"
ui.info "Adding disk to VM"
if File.exist?(disk_file)
ui.info "Disk already exists"
else
ui.info "Creating new disk"
driver.execute("createmedium", "disk", "--filename", disk_file, "--size", "#{size}", "--format", "VMDK")
ui.info "Attaching disk to VM"
driver.execute('storageattach', uuid, '--storagectl', "SATA Controller", '--port', "1", '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', disk_file)
end
original_call(env)
end
end
Hi could any one tell how can i use an existing hard disk on the host machine to be used as a hard disk of a vagrant VM .
when a vagrant spins up a Vm i want that VM to have the hard disk which is attached to my host VM ,say of 1TB.
and i want to bring one more VM with second hard disk which is also attached to my host VM say of 100gb. how can i do this in VagrantFile.
Adding this to you Vagrantfile might be enough to more thoroughly meet your needs, but will not handling the formatting phase like the plugin can (maybe ideal). The reason I wrote this is that things were going haywire for me if I ran certain vagrant operations after the controller already existed and it tried to create it again.
def sata_controller_exists?(controller_name="SATA Controller")
`vboxmanage showvminfo storage-host-vm-dev | grep " #{controller_name}" | wc -l`.to_i == 1
end
def port_in_use?(controller_name, port)
`vboxmanage showvminfo storage-host-vm-dev | grep "SATA Controller (#{port}, " | wc -l`.to_i == 1
end
def attach_hdd(v, controller_name, port, hdd_path)
unless port_in_use?(controller_name, port)
v.customize ['storageattach', :id, '--storagectl', 'SATA Controller', '--port', port, '--device', 0, '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', hdd_path]
end
end
.
.
.
# Note that I have a multi-VM Vagrantfile so run this based on which VM is being iterated over...
if vm[:name] == 'storage-host-vm'
controller_name = 'SATA Controller'
v.customize ['storagectl', :id, '--name', controller_name, '--add', 'sata', '--portcount', 4] unless sata_controller_exists?(controller_name)
file_to_disk = "./packer_cache/#{vm[:name]}_vault_1.vdi"
v.customize ['createhd', '--filename', file_to_disk, '--size', 1 * 1024] unless File.exist?(file_to_disk)
attach_hdd(v, controller_name, 0, file_to_disk)
end
.

In Vagrant 2.1.4, I'm getting:
`instance_eval': stack level too deep (SystemStackError)
It's probably because of the
uuid = driver.instance_eval { @uuid }
Any idea how to fix it?
Trying to run 3 Ubuntu nodes with 3 disks in vagrant.
Has anyone managed to do this?
Below is a WORKING vagrantfile with 3 centos7 nodes with 3 disks.
But it DOESN'T WORK for ubuntu.

Thanks for the gist and helpful comments. Using
ubuntu/xenial64
, I need to use a higher port number, since this box uses a second config disk, so I've got'--port', 4
.
