I am trying to create DevStack + Monasca setup on a Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bits) host running on a VirtualMachine. Using the setup instructions given here: https://github.com/openstack/monasca-vagrant
This is a 2 VM setup - devstack & monasca running on two different VMs. vagrant is used to setup and provision the whole thing. It first brings up Devstack VM. During this process mounting shared folders give the output + error:
stack@stack-vm:~/monasca-vagrant$ vagrant up

Vagrant was unable to mount VirtualBox shared folders. This is usually
because the filesystem "vboxsf" is not available. This filesystem is
made available via the VirtualBox Guest Additions and kernel module.
Please verify that these guest additions are properly installed in the
guest. This is not a bug in Vagrant and is usually caused by a faulty
Vagrant box. For context, the command attemped was:
set -e
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`getent group vagrant | cut -d: -f3` vagrant /vagrant
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant` vagrant /vagrant
The error output from the command was:
: No such device
However, if I ssh into the DevStack VM and use sudo with mount command then the command works fine. Also, I am able to see the contents of shared folder in the guest. So it seems, 'sudo' is required afterall for mounting the share. However, I am not able to find a way to do it through vagrant. I tried to select 'auto-mount' from Virtualbox settings but they are also not editable. Plus I made sure guest additions is installed on the Guest.
Would require and appreciate any help in successfully mounting the folders.
Thanks, -Arun
