  • NOTE: The $disk will be created dynamically when you run vagrant up. It is used as a dynamically growable backing store for lxd containers deployed via the embedded OpenStack.

This project was adapted from the project devstack-vm and incorporates many tips and suggestions found around the web on devstack and vagrant forums, too many to list or otherwise locate at this point.
