2. [VMWare Fusion](https://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/) version 5 or greater as well as the appropriate [Vagrant VMWare Fusion provider](https://www.vagrantup.com/vmware)

By default, the Vagrant setup will create a single kubernetes-master and 1 kubernetes-minion. Each VM will take 1 GB, so make sure you have at least 2GB to 4GB of free memory (plus appropriate free disk space). To start your local cluster, open a shell and run:
```
```sh
cd kubernetes
export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=vagrant
cluster/kube-up.sh
./cluster/kube-up.sh
```
Vagrant will provision each machine in the cluster with all the necessary components to run Kubernetes. The initial setup can take a few minutes to complete on each machine.
If you installed more than one Vagrant provider, Kubernetes will usually pick the appropriate one. However, you can override which one Kubernetes will use by setting the [`VAGRANT_DEFAULT_PROVIDER`](https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/providers/default.html) environment variable:
```sh
export VAGRANT_DEFAULT_PROVIDER=parallels
export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=vagrant
./cluster/kube-up.sh
```
By default, each VM in the cluster is running Fedora, and all of the Kubernetes services are installed into systemd.
To access the master or any minion:
```
```sh
vagrant ssh master
vagrant ssh minion-1
```
If you are running more than one minion, you can access the others by:

#### I just created the cluster, but I do not see my container running!
If this is your first time creating the cluster, the kubelet on each minion schedules a number of docker pull requests to fetch prerequisite images. This can take some time and as a result may delay your initial pod getting provisioned.

#### I want to change the number of minions!
You can control the number of minions that are instantiated via the environment variable `NUM_MINIONS` on your host machine. If you plan to work with replicas, we strongly encourage you to work with enough minions to satisfy your largest intended replica size. If you do not plan to work with replicas, you can save some system resources by running with a single minion. You do this, by setting `NUM_MINIONS` to 1 like so:
```
```sh
export NUM_MINIONS=1
```
#### I want my VMs to have more memory !
#### I want my VMs to have more memory!
You can control the memory allotted to virtual machines with the `KUBERNETES_MEMORY` environment variable.
Just set it to the number of megabytes you would like the machines to have. For example:
```
```sh
export KUBERNETES_MEMORY=2048
```
If you need more granular control, you can set the amount of memory for the master and minions independently. For example:
```sh
export KUBERNETES_MASTER_MEMORY=1536
export KUBERNETES_MASTER_MINION=2048
```
#### I ran vagrant suspend and nothing works!
```vagrant suspend``` seems to mess up the network. It's not supported at this time.
