Setup a Debian Saltstack minion with a single command

89 Replies

If you have a handful of servers you need to add to Saltstack for management purposes, and don’t want to spend 10 minutes per node setting it up the Saltstack minion, you normally do one of two things. One, create a script to automate the process for you or Two, streamline the process to a single command. Well I did the latter, and felt like sharing it so you don’t have to spend 5 minutes dealing with regular expressions and sed.

Note: This is made to be used on Debian Wheezy, and needs to be ran as root.

Copy Code 


echo "deb http://debian.saltstack.com/debian wheezy-saltstack main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/saltstack.list && wget -q -O- "http://debian.saltstack.com/debian-salt-team-joehealy.gpg.key" | apt-key add - && apt-get update && apt-get -y install salt-minion && sed -i 's/#master: salt$/master: 111.222.333.444/' /etc/salt/minion && service salt-minion restart

The string of commands above will add the saltstack repo, update the package database, install salt-minion and all of the dependencies, set the saltstack daemon to use the IP of 111.222.333.444 as the master server, and then restart the saltstack minion service. Once the command is complete, you can finish adding the system by running salt-key -A on the saltstack master server. Remember to change the IP in the command to the hostname or IP of your master server first otherwise it will not be able to communicate with it properly.

    I have been browsing online more than three hours today, yet
    I never found any interesting article like yours.
    It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web
    will be much more useful than ever before.

    I could sense real thought and real warmth behind every choice you made here and that blend held my attention fully. I love how you fixed each larger claim to something real so nothing here ever wandered off into hollow abstraction. You have my complete admiration and support so keep that flame burning and keep lighting the way for everyone behind you.

    I could feel real thought and real warmth behind each choice you made here and that blend held my attention fully. I respect that you let your readers puzzle it out themselves rather than tidily handing over every last conclusion. Thank you once more for showing that small honest steps eventually gather into the exact changes we all quietly hope for.

    This quietly reminded me that a piece written with real thought can lift and reshape the whole texture of a day. You walked through it all so patiently that even a total beginner could finish this feeling steady confident and ready. You have every reason to feel proud of this so please carry that pride straight into whatever project you dream up next.

    I have saved countless posts over the years yet only a rare few earned it as swiftly and fully as this one just did. I respect that you let your readers reason it through instead of neatly handing over every last conclusion in advance. You have earned a loyal new reader in me today and I will gladly cheer you onward through everything you go on to make.

    I felt my thoughts grow quieter as I read because your steady reassuring tone made the whole subject feel achievable. You never reached for hollow buzzwords and that plain honest voice is exactly why I trust every word you set down here. Keep showing up every single day because that quiet consistency is precisely how everyday effort grows into greatness.

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this
    matter to be really something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward
    for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!
