salt-ssh without roster file

[Mathieu Drapeau]

I am trying to use salt-ssh a bit like pdsh or clustershell.
So by providing a list of hosts or ip addresses WITHOUT using a roster file but it doesn't seem to work.

Here is the command and what it returns:

salt-ssh --roster scan 10.10.1.4 test.ping
No hosts found with target 10.14.83.218 of type glob

Also, is it possible to give a list of servers using their hostnames like such:   test_server[1-4]
Also, is it possible to use another user and not root?

thanks

salt-ssh --roster scan 10.10.1.4 test.ping
No hosts found with target 10.14.83.218 of type glob

That is very strange, that it's apparently targeting a different IP than the one you provided for the command...

Try `salt-ssh --roster=scan 10.10.1.4 test.ping` instead, maybe?

We could definitely add a command line flag for changing the user for the scan roster. Would you mind opening an issue for that?

Thanks!
