Here are brief setup instructions for setting up a local Vagrant single-node cluster. The Mesos endpoint will be 192.168.33.10:5050 and the Marathon endpoint will be 192.168.33.10:8080.

A.1 Create Vagrant file with 64-bit Ubuntu

First create the Vagrant file with necessary customizations:

$ vi Vagrantfile

Add the following content and save the file:

# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu/trusty64"

  config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10"
  config.vm.hostname = "mesos"

  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
    vb.memory = "4096"
    vb.cpus = 4
  end

end

Next, update the box to the latest version and start it:

$ vagrant box update
$ vagrant up

A.2 Install Mesos, Marathon and Docker

We can now ssh to the instance to install the necessary bits:

$ vagrant ssh

The rest of these instructions are run from within this ssh shell.

Refresh the apt repo and install Docker:

vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo apt-get -y update
vagrant@mesos:~$ wget -qO- https://get.docker.com/ | sh
vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo usermod -aG docker vagrant

Install needed repos:

vagrant@mesos:~$ echo "deb http://repos.mesosphere.io/$(lsb_release -is | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]') $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mesosphere.list
vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv E56151BF
vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java -y
vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo apt-get -y update

Install Java:

vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

Install Mesos and Marathon:

vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo apt-get -y install mesos marathon

Add Docker as a containerizer:

vagrant@mesos:~$ echo 'docker,mesos' | sudo tee /etc/mesos-slave/containerizers

Set the IP address as the hostname used for the slave:

vagrant@mesos:~$ echo $(/sbin/ifconfig eth1 | grep 'inet addr:' | cut -d: -f2 | awk '{ print $1}') | sudo tee /etc/mesos-slave/hostname

Reboot the server
```
vagrant@mesos:~$ sudo reboot
```
