salt-master

[Rahul kumar Patel]

can any one tell me simple steps requeird to create saltstack master on linux or window 

[Ajinkya Joshi]

Configuration on Master - 

[root ~]# yum install salt-master 

[root ~]# /etc/init.d/salt-master start 

[root  ~]#  chkconfig salt-master on

Manage your minions by accepting key :- 

salt-key -l    -  This will show list of unaccepted keys

salt-key –a  <minion_name>   -   This will accept your minion

Test your minion using 

salt ‘minion_name’ test.ping

Configuration on Minion - 

[root ~]# yum install salt-minion 

[root ~]# /etc/init.d/salt-minion start 

[root  ~]#  chkconfig salt-minion on

Edit minion configuration file - 

[root ~]# vim /etc/salt/minion

# master: salt

 master: Master servers IP address

Give your minion a nickname (If you want)

Open /etc/salt/minion_id

[root ~]# vim /etc/salt/minion_id

Enter nickname here

:wq!

[root ~]# # Now restart the minion

[root ~]# vim /etc/init.d/salt-minion restart

Test your minion using 

salt ‘minion_name’ test.ping

Output of this command must be True !!!!!

Not to be difficult, but you really need to spend some time with the documentation. If you didn't get far enough to find the installation steps, you will be hard pressed to make your newly-minted salt-master do anything useful.
