SALT-SSH

NAME

salt-ssh − salt-ssh Documentation

SYNOPSIS

salt−ssh '*' [ options ] sys.doc

salt−ssh −E '.*' [ options ] sys.doc cmd

DESCRIPTION

Salt SSH allows for salt routines to be executed using only SSH for transport

OPTIONS

−r, −−raw, −−raw−shell

Execute a raw shell command.

−−priv

Specify the SSH private key file to be used for authentication.

−−roster

Define which roster system to use, this defines if a database backend, scanner, or custom roster system is used. Default is the flat file roster.

−−roster−file

Define an alternative location for the default roster file location. The default roster file is called roster and is found in the same directory as the master config file.

New in version 2014.1.0.

−−refresh, −−refresh−cache

Force a refresh of the master side data cache of the target's data. This is needed if a target's grains have been changed and the auto refresh timeframe has not been reached.

−−max−procs

Set the number of concurrent minions to communicate with. This value defines how many processes are opened up at a time to manage connections, the more running process the faster communication should be, default is 25.

−i, −−ignore−host−keys

Disables StrictHostKeyChecking to relax acceptance of new and unknown host keys.

−−no−host−keys

Fully ignores ssh host keys which by default are honored and connections would ask for approval. Useful if the host key of a remote server has changed and would still error with −−ignore−host−keys.

−−passwd

Set the default password to attempt to use when authenticating.

−−key−deploy

Set this flag to attempt to deploy the authorized ssh key with all minions. This combined with −−passwd can make initial deployment of keys very fast and easy.

−−version

Print the version of Salt that is running.

−−versions−report

Show program's dependencies and version number, and then exit

−h, −−help

Show the help message and exit

−c CONFIG_DIR, −−config−dir=CONFIG_dir

The location of the Salt configuration directory. This directory contains the configuration files for Salt master and minions. The default location on most systems is /etc/salt.

Target Selection
The default matching that Salt utilizes is shell−style globbing around the minion id. See https://docs.python.org/2/library/fnmatch.html#module−fnmatch.
−E, −−pcre

The target expression will be interpreted as a PCRE regular expression rather than a shell glob.

Logging Options
Logging options which override any settings defined on the configuration files.
−l LOG_LEVEL, −−log−level=LOG_LEVEL

Console logging log level. One of all, garbage, trace, debug, info, warning, error, quiet. Default: warning.

−−log−file=LOG_FILE

Log file path. Default: /var/log/salt/ssh.

−−log−file−level=LOG_LEVEL_LOGFILE

Logfile logging log level. One of all, garbage, trace, debug, info, warning, error, quiet. Default: warning.

Output Options

−−out

Pass in an alternative outputter to display the return of data. This outputter can be any of the available outputters:

grains, highstate, json, key, overstatestage, pprint, raw, txt, yaml

Some outputters are formatted only for data returned from specific functions; for instance, the grains outputter will not work for non−grains data.

If an outputter is used that does not support the data passed into it, then Salt will fall back on the pprint outputter and display the return data using the Python pprint standard library module.

NOTE:

If using −−out=json, you will probably want −−static as well. Without the static option, you will get a separate JSON string per minion which makes JSON output invalid as a whole. This is due to using an iterative outputter. So if you want to feed it to a JSON parser, use −−static as well.

−−out−indent OUTPUT_INDENT, −−output−indent OUTPUT_INDENT

Print the output indented by the provided value in spaces. Negative values disable indentation. Only applicable in outputters that support indentation.

−−out−file=OUTPUT_FILE, −−output−file=OUTPUT_FILE

Write the output to the specified file.

−−no−color

Disable all colored output

−−force−color

Force colored output

NOTE:

When using colored output the color codes are as follows:

green denotes success, red denotes failure, blue denotes changes and success and yellow denotes a expected future change in configuration.
