Run salt-minion on salt master host?

[Jeff Kowalczyk]

(Please excuse the possible FAQ, a search turned up nothing conclusive)

I want to apply salt states locally on the salt master host.

Do I need to install and use salt-minion on the master host, or can master apply operations directly when local?

Thanks,

Jeff

You can install the salt minion and manage it just like the rest of your servers. I do this all the time

Yes, your best bet is to just install a minion locally -- it very easily coexists with the master.  I don't think the state.sls runner is exactly what you're looking for.
