What's going on with VMware's display name?

[Martin Andersson]

Supposedly, VMware should, just as is the case for VirtualBox, get the IP added as a suffix to the machine's display name. This is a copy-paste from the current Vagrantfile (v2.1.0):

v.vmx['displayname'] = name + " (#{ip})"

..but this appears not to have any effect what so ever lol. I mean, it gets passed into the VMX file actually, but it's like VMware simply ignores it.

lol it does not get passed to the VMX file. And I think the issue is Vagrant's schizophrenic provider naming. Just as I target all aliases on this line, I should do the same on this line. I.e., at the present I doubt any settings gets passed to VMware lololol

With Vagrant 2.2.1 this does not appear to be an issue anymore.
