Set VM name with hyperv provider

[Nicola]

Hi to all,
in my vagrant project  I've a gui where the users put into a box the name of the development environment. I want that this name is used in the vagrantfile to set the name for the hostname and for the name of the vm in hyperv. It's possible?

Thanks

Nicola

Hello Nicola,

In the vagrantfile you should be able to define a hyperv block to set
serveral options, one is the name on the gui

https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/hyperv/configuration.html

vmname (string) - Name of virtual mashine as shown in Hyper-V manager.
Defaults is taken from box image XML.

I haven't done it, so please try this:

config.vm.provider "hyperv" do |hv|
hv.vmname = testmachine"
end

Hello Alvaro, I try to do like your example bit I've this error:

There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix
the following errors and try again:

Hyper-V:
* The following settings shouldn't exist: cpus, memory, vmname

And my vagrantfile is this:

config.vm.provider "hyperv" do |hv|
  hv.vmname = "vm_name"
  hv.cpus = "1"
  hv.memory = "512"
end

Have you any idea?

I'm on the latest release of Vagrant (1.7.2) and seems that configuration is not supported...

It seems my entire hyper-v config is being ignored. Were you able to get this working? I am trying to set vmname and memory but not working.

Hello,

Can you send a new email and share your Vagrantfile for review?

You did reply to a email thread a bit outdated.

Thanks

Alvaro.
