.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Salt copy copies a local file out to all of the Salt minions matched by the
given target.
.sp
Salt copy is only intended for use with small files (< 100KB). If you need
to copy large files out to minions please use the cp.get_file function.
.sp
Note: salt\-cp uses salt\(aqs publishing mechanism. This means the privacy of the
contents of the file on the wire is completely dependent upon the transport
in use. In addition, if the salt\-master is running with debug logging it is
possible that the contents of the file will be logged to disk.
.SH OPTIONS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-version
Print the version of Salt that is running.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-versions\-report
Show program\(aqs dependencies and version number, and then exit
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-h, \-\-help
Show the help message and exit
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-c CONFIG_DIR, \-\-config\-dir=CONFIG_dir
The location of the Salt configuration directory. This directory contains
the configuration files for Salt master and minions. The default location
on most systems is \fB/etc/salt\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-t TIMEOUT, \-\-timeout=TIMEOUT
The timeout in seconds to wait for replies from the Salt minions. The
timeout number specifies how long the command line client will wait to
query the minions and check on running jobs. Default: 5
.UNINDENT
.SS Logging Options
.sp
Logging options which override any settings defined on the configuration files.
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-l LOG_LEVEL, \-\-log\-level=LOG_LEVEL
Console logging log level. One of \fBall\fP, \fBgarbage\fP, \fBtrace\fP,
\fBdebug\fP, \fBinfo\fP, \fBwarning\fP, \fBerror\fP, \fBquiet\fP\&. Default:
\fBwarning\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-log\-file=LOG_FILE
Log file path. Default: /var/log/salt/master\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-log\-file\-level=LOG_LEVEL_LOGFILE
Logfile logging log level. One of \fBall\fP, \fBgarbage\fP, \fBtrace\fP,
\fBdebug\fP, \fBinfo\fP, \fBwarning\fP, \fBerror\fP, \fBquiet\fP\&. Default:
\fBwarning\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.SS Target Selection
.sp
The default matching that Salt utilizes is shell\-style globbing around the
minion id. See \fI\%https://docs.python.org/2/library/fnmatch.html#module\-fnmatch\fP\&.
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-E, \-\-pcre
The target expression will be interpreted as a PCRE regular expression
rather than a shell glob.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-L, \-\-list
The target expression will be interpreted as a comma\-delimited list;
example: server1.foo.bar,server2.foo.bar,example7.quo.qux
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-G, \-\-grain
The target expression matches values returned by the Salt grains system on
the minions. The target expression is in the format of \(aq<grain value>:<glob
expression>\(aq; example: \(aqos:Arch*\(aq
.sp
This was changed in version 0.9.8 to accept glob expressions instead of
regular expression. To use regular expression matching with grains, use
the \-\-grain\-pcre option.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-grain\-pcre
The target expression matches values returned by the Salt grains system on
the minions. The target expression is in the format of \(aq<grain value>:<
regular expression>\(aq; example: \(aqos:Arch.*\(aq
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-N, \-\-nodegroup
Use a predefined compound target defined in the Salt master configuration
file.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-R, \-\-range
Instead of using shell globs to evaluate the target, use a range expression
to identify targets. Range expressions look like %cluster.
.sp
Using the Range option requires that a range server is set up and the
location of the range server is referenced in the master configuration
file.
