Up

Command: vagrant up [name|id]

This command creates and configures guest machines according to your Vagrantfile.

This is the single most important command in Vagrant, since it is how any Vagrant machine is created.

Options

• name - Name of machine defined in Vagrantfile. Using name to specify the Vagrant machine to act on must be done from within a Vagrant project (directory where the Vagrantfile exists).

• id - Machine id found with vagrant global-status. Using id allows you to call vagrant up id from any directory.

• --[no-]destroy-on-error - Destroy the newly created machine if a fatal, unexpected error occurs. This will only happen on the first vagrant up. By default this is set.

• --[no-]install-provider - If the requested provider is not installed, Vagrant will attempt to automatically install it if it can. By default this is enabled.

• --[no-]parallel - Bring multiple machines up in parallel if the provider supports it. Please consult the provider documentation to see if this feature is supported.

• --provider x - Bring the machine up with the given provider. By default this is "virtualbox".

• --[no-]provision - Force, or prevent, the provisioners to run.

• --provision-with x,y,z - This will only run the given provisioners. For example, if you have a :shell and :chef_solo provisioner and run vagrant provision --provision-with shell, only the shell provisioner will be run.
