Not within Vagrant itself. This is really the realm of configuration management tools. As far as I know, no tools do this reverse engineering because it is a fundamentally very difficult problem, but many of the config mgmt tools make it very easy to translate shell commands to rudimentary scripts for their systems.


Vagrant doesn't, but blueprint[0] seems to be a decent tool for generating puppet manifests. I haven't used it personally, but an Ops guy at work has had some success with it.

Puppet has some limited support for generating manifests based on the state of an existing system: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/man/resource.html
