this is how Vagrant actually works: it launches a virtual machine and
expose the current working directory into the virtual machine using a
shared folder (http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/synced_folders.html).

It's nice to have OpenNebula running inside a VM with all dependencies
automatically installed in a few minutes, and you can easily modify
OpenNebula source code from your IDE running on your host machine.

I hope to be able to expand the chef recipes to cover also the
OpenNebula installation via binary packages and to automate the
opennebula configuration.

Cheers,
