# Vagrant Development Environment {#vagrant} ## Introduction {#vagrant_intro} [Vagrant](https://www.vagrantup.com/) provides a quick way to get a basic NVMe enabled virtual machine sandbox running without the need for any special hardware. The Vagrant environment for SPDK has support for a variety of Linux distributions as well as FreeBSD. Run scripts/vagrant/create_vbox.sh -h to see the complete list. This environment requires Vagrant 1.9.4 or newer and VirtualBox 5.1 or newer with the matching VirtualBox extension pack. Note: If you are behind a corporate firewall, set `http_proxy` and `https_proxy` in your environment before trying to start up the VM. Also make sure that you have installed the optional vagrant module `vagrant-proxyconf`: ~~~{.sh} export http_proxy=... export https_proxy=... vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf ~~~ In case you want use kvm/libvirt you should also install `vagrant-libvirt` ## VM Configuration {#vagrant_config} To create a configured VM with vagrant you need to run `create_vbox.sh` script. Basically, the script will create a new sub-directory based on distribution you choose, copy the vagrant configuration file (a.k.a. `Vagrantfile`) to it, and run `vagrant up` with some settings defined by the script arguments. By default, the VM created is configured with: - 2 vCPUs - 4G of RAM - 2 NICs (1 x NAT - host access, 1 x private network) In order to modify some advanced settings like provisioning and rsyncing, you may want to change Vagrantfile source. For additional support, use the Vagrant help function to learn how to destroy, restart, etc. Further below is sample output from a successful VM launch and execution of the NVMe hello world example application. ~~~{.sh} vagrant --help ~~~ ## Running An Example {#vagrant_example} The following shows sample output from starting up a Ubuntu18 VM, compiling SPDK on it and running the NVMe sample application `hello_world`. If you don't see the NVMe device as seen below in both the `lspci` output as well as the application output, you likely have a VirtualBox and/or Vagrant versioning issue. ~~~{.sh} user@dev-system:~$ cd spdk/scripts/vagrant user@dev-system:~/spdk/scripts/vagrant$ ./create_vbox.sh ubuntu18 mkdir: created directory '/home/user/spdk/scripts/vagrant/ubuntu18' ~/spdk/scripts/vagrant/ubuntu18 ~/spdk/scripts/vagrant vagrant-proxyconf already installed... skipping Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider... ==> default: Box 'bento/ubuntu-18.04' could not be found.
