- require: pkg: cifs-utils

[Calanon]

Hi,

I have this:

  mount.mounted:

   - device: //nas.dh.net/Share /Share

   - fstype: cifs

   - opts: 'vers=2.0,credentials=/cred'

   - mkmnt: True

   - require:

     - pkg: cifs-utils

The target minion is centos 7.  When I run state.apply I get the following message:

Comment: The following requisites were not found:

                                 require:

                                     pkg: cifs-utils

When I type on directly on the console of the target minion:

yum install cifs-utils

It works!

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Thanks

The 'require' doesn't look for the cifs-utils package directly, it refers to another 'pkg' state called 'cifs-utils', so you need to make sure that is present. For example, 

    cifs-utils:

      pkg.latest:

        - refresh: True

Calanon,

The code:

> - require:
> - pkg: cifs-utils

references not a system package called "cifs-utils", but a salt state,
in the "pkg" module, called "cifs-utils". Your code should work if you
add this state:

cifs-utils:
pkg.installed


You could also expand the "cifs-utils" state to support multiple
platforms such as ubuntu, where the package name is different, but you
would still be able to reference the state from a requisite using its
name "pkg: cifs-utils".

Regards,


-Joel
