Vagrant: Creating 10 vm's with 6 disks each

Hello lazyweb,

the Vagrantfile below works fine, but can probably be written simpler. I've been struggling to create variables like "servers=10" and "disks=6" to automate creation of 10 servers with 6 disks each.

Drop me a hint if you feel like creating those two loops.


paul@retinad:~/vagrant$ cat Vagrantfile
hosts = [ { name: 'server1', disk1: './server1disk1.vdi', disk2: 'server1disk2.vdi' },
          { name: 'server2', disk1: './server2disk1.vdi', disk2: 'server2disk2.vdi' },
          { name: 'server3', disk1: './server3disk1.vdi', disk2: 'server3disk2.vdi' }]

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

  config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
   vb.customize ["storagectl", :id, "--add", "sata", "--name", "SATA" , "--portcount", 2, "--hostiocache", "on"]
  end

  hosts.each do |host|

    config.vm.define host[:name] do |node|
      node.vm.hostname = host[:name]
      node.vm.box = "chef/centos-6.5"
      node.vm.network :public_network
      node.vm.synced_folder "/srv/data", "/data"
      node.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
        vb.name = host[:name]
        vb.customize ['createhd', '--filename', host[:disk1], '--size', 2 * 1024]
        vb.customize ['createhd', '--filename', host[:disk2], '--size', 2 * 1024]
        vb.customize ['storageattach', :id, '--storagectl', "SATA", '--port', 1, '--device', 0, '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', host[:disk1] ]
        vb.customize ['storageattach', :id, '--storagectl', "SATA", '--port', 2, '--device', 0, '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', host[:disk2] ]
      end
    end

  end

end
