Box installation / setup

1. Download and add Cast box vagrant box add cast /local/path/the.box http://path.to/the.box

2. Create and change to a Cast box root directory mkdir ~/vagrant/cast ; cd ~/vagrant/cast

3. Initialize Cast box inside this directory vagrant init cast

4. Start the VM vagrant up

Usage

• vagrant suspend - save the snapshot and suspend the VM
• vagrant resume - resume from a saved snapshot
• vagrant halt - turn off the VM (current state is not saved)
• vagrant up - starts the stopped VM
• vagrant reload - re-run the provisioner. Useful if you edit some cookbook settings and you want the provision to re-evaluate all the recipes again.
