vagrant-vbox-snapshot

Vagrant plugin that exposes the VBoxManage snapshot command.

Install

Ensure you have Vagrant 1.1+ installed, then run:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbox-snapshot

Usage

The following commands are added by this plugin:

 vagrant snapshot take [NAME]            # take snapshot, labeled by NAME
 vagrant snapshot list                   # list snapshots
 vagrant snapshot back                   # restore last taken snapshot
 vagrant snapshot delete [NAME]          # delete specified snapshot
 vagrant snapshot go [NAME]              # restore specified snapshot

Caveats

• Not compatible with Vagrant <1.1. If you need this, try another solution.
