This could possibly be the shortest tutorial in this series. We have been dealing with targeting minions and different methods to target minions. We have covered a couple of methods of targeting minions - with glob matching and PCRE matching, in previous tutorials. In this one, we will learn about another methods i.e. using list matching and believe me, it's the simplest one.
This method does not require any fancy stuff to match minion IDs, like we saw in case of previous cases. We just provide a list of minions to the
This method does not require any fancy stuff to match minion IDs, like we saw in case of previous cases. We just provide a list of minions to the
salt
command, that we wish to manage. List is a comma separated sequence of minions. In order to process the list on minions, we use the option -L
or --list
with salt
command. Remember, till now, we have created only two minions - centos-rack1
and redhat-rack2
.$ salt -L 'centos-rack1' test.ping centos-rack1: True $ salt -L 'centos-rack1,redhat-rack2,ubuntu-rack1' test.ping redhat-rack2: True centos-rack1: True $ salt -L 'ubuntu-rack1' test.ping No minions matched the target. No command was sent, no jid was assigned. ERROR: No return received
