Vagrant is unable to restart consul service

Note: This is being done in CentOS-65

An update. I've figured out a decent Vagrantfile that works. The issue described above is when you feed an array of servers to a cluster that may not yet exist. (e.g. ["10.0.0.10","10.0.0.11","10.0.0.12"] ). If those servers don't exist, the consul service will not restart properly. I would consider this a bug but I don't know whether it's a bug in the cookbook or in the consul application itself.

Anyway, my Vagrantfile that works well to bring up 3 cluster nodes and a client node. The clusters are limited to 256M of RAM as I don't need them any larger. The CentOS image is one we Packer'd for our org but is essentially the base CentOS 6.6. The client is given the full server list since by the time the client comes up (unless Vagrant Up is done via --parallel) the cluster nodes are up and ready for connections. I bind the consul services to eth1 as those offer the 10.0.0.x address instead of eth0 which offers the DHCP address :

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
  config.omnibus.chef_version = :latest
  config.berkshelf.enabled = true

  (1..3).each do |i|
    config.vm.define "cluster-#{i}", primary: true do |node|
      node.vm.network "private_network", ip: "10.0.0.1#{i}"
      node.vm.provider "vmware_fusion" do |v|
        v.vmx["memsize"] = "256"
      end
      node.vm.provider :virtualbox do |v|
        v.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "256"]
      end
      node.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
        chef.add_recipe "consul::default"
        chef.json.merge!({
            :consul => {
              "servers" => ["10.0.0.11"],
              "service_mode" => "cluster",
              "bootstrap_expect" => "3",
              "retry_on_join" => true,
              "enable_syslog" => true,
              "log_level" => "debug",
              "node_name" => "cluster-#{i}",
              "advertise_addr" => "10.0.0.1#{i}",
              "bind_interface" => "eth1",
              "advertise_interface" => "eth1"
            }
          })
        end
    end
  end

  config.vm.define "agent" do |node|
    node.vm.network "private_network", ip: "10.0.0.20"
    node.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
      chef.add_recipe "consul::default"
      chef.json.merge!({
          :consul => {
            "servers" => ["10.0.0.11","10.0.0.12","10.0.0.13"],
            "service_mode" => "client",
            "retry_on_join" => true,
            "enable_syslog" => true,
            "log_level" => "debug",
            "node_name" => "consul-agent",
            "advertise_addr" => "10.0.0.20",
            "bind_interface" => "eth1",
            "advertise_interface" => "eth1"
          }
        })
    end
  end
end
