How do I destroy a VM when I deleted the .vagrant file?

Question

I deleted the directory that contained the .vagrant file. When I up a new VM it\'s complaining about ports being in use. So how do I destroy a VM without having it\'s .vagrant f

Answer 1

The following bash function would poweroff and destroy all files related to all VMs for the current user:

function killvms() {
  VBoxManage list runningvms | awk '{print $2;}' | xargs -I vmid VBoxManage controlvm vmid poweroff
  VBoxManage list vms | awk '{print $2;}' | xargs -I vmid VBoxManage unregistervm --delete vmid
}

Add it to your ~/.bash_aliases and call it in your shell via killvms.
