##### Primary configuration settings ##### ########################################## # This configuration file is used to manage the behavior of the Salt Master. # Values that are commented out but have no space after the comment are # defaults that need not be set in the config. If there is a space after the # comment that the value is presented as an example and is not the default. # Per default, the master will automatically include all config files # from master.d/*.conf (master.d is a directory in the same directory # as the main master config file). #default_include: master.d/*.conf # The address of the interface to bind to: #interface: 0.0.0.0 # Whether the master should listen for IPv6 connections. If this is set to True, # the interface option must be adjusted, too. (For example: "interface: '::'") #ipv6: False # The tcp port used by the publisher: #publish_port: 4505 # The user under which the salt master will run. Salt will update all # permissions to allow the specified user to run the master. The exception is # the job cache, which must be deleted if this user is changed. If the # modified files cause conflicts, set verify_env to False. #user: root # Max open files # # Each minion connecting to the master uses AT LEAST one file descriptor, the # master subscription connection. If enough minions connect you might start # seeing on the console (and then salt-master crashes): # Too many open files (tcp_listener.cpp:335) # Aborted (core dumped) # # By default this value will be the one of `ulimit -Hn`, ie, the hard limit for # max open files. # # If you wish to set a different value than the default one, uncomment and # configure this setting. Remember that this value CANNOT be higher than the # hard limit. Raising the hard limit depends on your OS and/or distribution, # a good way to find the limit is to search the internet. For example: # raise max open files hard limit debian # #max_open_files: 100000 # The number of worker threads to start. These threads are used to manage # return calls made from minions to the master. If the master seems to be # running slowly, increase the number of threads. #worker_threads: 5 # The port used by the communication interface. The ret (return) port is the # interface used for the file server, authentication, job returns, etc. #ret_port: 4506 # Specify the location of the daemon process ID file: #pidfile: /var/run/salt-master.pid # The root directory prepended to these options: pki_dir, cachedir, # sock_dir, log_file, autosign_file, autoreject_file, extension_modules, # key_logfile, pidfile: #root_dir: / # Directory used to store public key data: #pki_dir: /etc/salt/pki/master # Directory to store job and cache data: #cachedir: /var/cache/salt/master # Directory for custom modules. This directory can contain subdirectories for # each of Salt's module types such as "runners", "output", "wheel", "modules", # "states", "returners", etc. #extension_modules: # Verify and set permissions on configuration directories at startup: #verify_env: True # Set the number of hours to keep old job information in the job cache: #keep_jobs: 24 # Set the default timeout for the salt command and api. The default is 5 # seconds. #timeout: 5 # The loop_interval option controls the seconds for the master's maintenance # process check cycle. This process updates file server backends, cleans the # job cache and executes the scheduler. #loop_interval: 60 # Set the default outputter used by the salt command. The default is "nested". #output: nested # By default, output is colored. To disable colored output, set the color value # to False. #color: True # Do not strip off the colored output from nested results and state outputs # (true by default). # strip_colors: False # Set the directory used to hold unix sockets: #sock_dir: /var/run/salt/master # The master can take a while to start up when lspci and/or dmidecode is used # to populate the grains for the master. Enable if you want to see GPU hardware # data for your master. # enable_gpu_grains: False # The master maintains a job cache. While this is a great addition, it can be # a burden on the master for larger deployments (over 5000 minions). # Disabling the job cache will make previously executed jobs unavailable to # the jobs system and is not generally recommended. #job_cache: True # Cache minion grains and pillar data in the cachedir. #minion_data_cache: True # Passing very large events can cause the minion to consume large amounts of # memory. This value tunes the maximum size of a message allowed onto the # master event bus. The value is expressed in bytes. #max_event_size: 1048576 # By default, the master AES key rotates every 24 hours. The next command # following a key rotation will trigger a key refresh from the minion which may # result in minions which do not respond to the first command after a key refresh. # # To tell the master to ping all minions immediately after an AES key refresh, set # ping_on_rotate to True. This should mitigate the issue where a minion does not # appear to initially respond after a key is rotated. # # Note that ping_on_rotate may cause high load on the master immediately after # the key rotation event as minions reconnect. Consider this carefully if this # salt master is managing a large number of minions. # # If disabled, it is recommended to handle this event by listening for the # 'aes_key_rotate' event with the 'key' tag and acting appropriately. # ping_on_rotate: False # By default, the master deletes its cache of minion data when the key for that # minion is removed. To preserve the cache after key deletion, set # 'preserve_minion_cache' to True. # # WARNING: This may have security implications if compromised minions auth with # a previous deleted minion ID. #preserve_minion_cache: False # If max_minions is used in large installations, the master might experience # high-load situations because of having to check the number of connected # minions for every authentication. This cache provides the minion-ids of # all connected minions to all MWorker-processes and greatly improves the # performance of max_minions. # con_cache: False # The master can include configuration from other files. To enable this, # pass a list of paths to this option. The paths can be either relative or # absolute; if relative, they are considered to be relative to the directory # the main master configuration file lives in (this file). Paths can make use # of shell-style globbing. If no files are matched by a path passed to this # option, then the master will log a warning message. # # Include a config file from some other path: #include: /etc/salt/extra_config # # Include config from several files and directories: #include: # - /etc/salt/extra_config ##### Security settings ##### ########################################## # Enable "open mode", this mode still maintains encryption, but turns off # authentication, this is only intended for highly secure environments or for # the situation where your keys end up in a bad state. If you run in open mode # you do so at your own risk! #open_mode: False # Enable auto_accept, this setting will automatically accept all incoming # public keys from the minions. Note that this is insecure. #auto_accept: False # Time in minutes that a incomming public key with a matching name found in # pki_dir/minion_autosign/keyid is automatically accepted. Expired autosign keys # are removed when the master checks the minion_autosign directory. # 0 equals no timeout # autosign_timeout: 120 # If the autosign_file is specified, incoming keys specified in the # autosign_file will be automatically accepted. This is insecure. Regular # expressions as well as globing lines are supported. #autosign_file: /etc/salt/autosign.conf # Works like autosign_file, but instead allows you to specify minion IDs for # which keys will automatically be rejected. Will override both membership in # the autosign_file and the auto_accept setting. #autoreject_file: /etc/salt/autoreject.conf # Enable permissive access to the salt keys. This allows you to run the # master or minion as root, but have a non-root group be given access to # your pki_dir. To make the access explicit, root must belong to the group # you've given access to. This is potentially quite insecure. If an autosign_file # is specified, enabling permissive_pki_access will allow group access to that # specific file. #permissive_pki_access: False # Allow users on the master access to execute specific commands on minions. # This setting should be treated with care since it opens up execution # capabilities to non root users. By default this capability is completely # disabled. #client_acl: # larry: # - test.ping # - network.* # Blacklist any of the following users or modules # # This example would blacklist all non sudo users, including root from # running any commands.

Default: 100 #file_recv_max_size: 100 # Signature verification on messages published from the master. # This causes the master to cryptographically sign all messages published to its event # bus, and minions then verify that signature before acting on the message. # # This is False by default. # # Note that to facilitate interoperability with masters and minions that are different # versions, if sign_pub_messages is True but a message is received by a minion with # no signature, it will still be accepted, and a warning message will be logged. # Conversely, if sign_pub_messages is False, but a minion receives a signed # message it will be accepted, the signature will not be checked, and a warning message # will be logged. This behavior went away in Salt 2014.1.0 and these two situations # will cause minion to throw an exception and drop the message. # sign_pub_messages: False ##### Master Module Management ##### ########################################## # Manage how master side modules are loaded. # Add any additional locations to look for master runners: #runner_dirs: [] # Enable Cython for master side modules: #cython_enable: False ##### State System settings ##### ########################################## # The state system uses a "top" file to tell the minions what environment to # use and what modules to use. The state_top file is defined relative to the # root of the base environment as defined in "File Server settings" below. #state_top: top.sls # The master_tops option replaces the external_nodes option by creating # a plugable system for the generation of external top data. The external_nodes # option is deprecated by the master_tops option. # # To gain the capabilities of the classic external_nodes system, use the # following configuration: # master_tops: # ext_nodes: # #master_tops: {} # The external_nodes option allows Salt to gather data that would normally be # placed in a top file. The external_nodes option is the executable that will # return the ENC data. Remember that Salt will look for external nodes AND top # files and combine the results if both are enabled! #external_nodes: None # The renderer to use on the minions to render the state data #renderer: yaml_jinja # The Jinja renderer can strip extra carriage returns and whitespace # See http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/api/#high-level-api # # If this is set to True the first newline after a Jinja block is removed # (block, not variable tag!). Defaults to False, corresponds to the Jinja # environment init variable "trim_blocks". # jinja_trim_blocks: False # # If this is set to True leading spaces and tabs are stripped from the start # of a line to a block. Defaults to False, corresponds to the Jinja # environment init variable "lstrip_blocks". # jinja_lstrip_blocks: False # The failhard option tells the minions to stop immediately after the first # failure detected in the state execution, defaults to False #failhard: False # The state_verbose and state_output settings can be used to change the way # state system data is printed to the display. By default all data is printed. # The state_verbose setting can be set to True or False, when set to False # all data that has a result of True and no changes will be suppressed. #state_verbose: True # The state_output setting changes if the output is the full multi line # output for each changed state if set to 'full', but if set to 'terse' # the output will be shortened to a single line. If set to 'mixed', the output # will be terse unless a state failed, in which case that output will be full. # If set to 'changes', the output will be full unless the state didn't change. #state_output: full # Automatically aggregate all states that have support for mod_aggregate by # setting to True. Or pass a list of state module names to automatically # aggregate just those types. # # state_aggregate: # - pkg # #state_aggregate: False ##### File Server settings ##### ########################################## # Salt runs a lightweight file server written in zeromq to deliver files to # minions. This file server is built into the master daemon and does not # require a dedicated port. # The file server works on environments passed to the master, each environment # can have multiple root directories, the subdirectories in the multiple file # roots cannot match, otherwise the downloaded files will not be able to be # reliably ensured. A base environment is required to house the top file. # Example: # file_roots: # base: # - /srv/salt/ # dev: # - /srv/salt/dev/services # - /srv/salt/dev/states # prod: # - /srv/salt/prod/services # - /srv/salt/prod/states #file_roots: # base: # - /srv/salt # The hash_type is the hash to use when discovering the hash of a file on # the master server. The default is md5, but sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384 # and sha512 are also supported. # # Prior to changing this value, the master should be stopped and all Salt # caches should be cleared. #hash_type: md5 # The buffer size in the file server can be adjusted here: #file_buffer_size: 1048576 # A regular expression (or a list of expressions) that will be matched # against the file path before syncing the modules and states to the minions. # This includes files affected by the file.recurse state. # For example, if you manage your custom modules and states in subversion # and don't want all the '.svn' folders and content synced to your minions, # you could set this to '/\.svn($|/)'. By default nothing is ignored. #file_ignore_regex: # - '/\.svn($|/)' # - '/\.git($|/)' # A file glob (or list of file globs) that will be matched against the file # path before syncing the modules and states to the minions. This is similar # to file_ignore_regex above, but works on globs instead of regex. By default # nothing is ignored. # file_ignore_glob: # - '*.pyc' # - '*/somefolder/*.bak' # - '*.swp' # File Server Backend # # Salt supports a modular fileserver backend system, this system allows # the salt master to link directly to third party systems to gather and # manage the files available to minions. Multiple backends can be # configured and will be searched for the requested file in the order in which # they are defined here. The default setting only enables the standard backend # "roots" which uses the "file_roots" option. #fileserver_backend: # - roots # # To use multiple backends list them in the order they are searched: #fileserver_backend: # - git # - roots # # Uncomment the line below if you do not want the file_server to follow # symlinks when walking the filesystem tree. This is set to True # by default. Currently this only applies to the default roots # fileserver_backend. #fileserver_followsymlinks: False # # Uncomment the line below if you do not want symlinks to be # treated as the files they are pointing to. By default this is set to # False. By uncommenting the line below, any detected symlink while listing # files on the Master will not be returned to the Minion. #fileserver_ignoresymlinks: True # # By default, the Salt fileserver recurses fully into all defined environments # to attempt to find files. To limit this behavior so that the fileserver only # traverses directories with SLS files and special Salt directories like _modules, # enable the option below. This might be useful for installations where a file root # has a very large number of files and performance is impacted. Default is False. # fileserver_limit_traversal: False # # The fileserver can fire events off every time the fileserver is updated, # these are disabled by default, but can be easily turned on by setting this # flag to True #fileserver_events: False # Git File Server Backend Configuration # # Gitfs can be provided by one of two python modules: GitPython or pygit2. If # using pygit2, both libgit2 and git must also be installed. #gitfs_provider: gitpython # # When using the git fileserver backend at least one git remote needs to be # defined. The user running the salt master will need read access to the repo. # # The repos will be searched in order to find the file requested by a client # and the first repo to have the file will return it. # When using the git backend branches and tags are translated into salt # environments. # Note: file:// repos will be treated as a remote, so refs you want used must # exist in that repo as *local* refs. #gitfs_remotes: # - git://github.com/saltstack/salt-states.git # - file:///var/git/saltmaster # # The gitfs_ssl_verify option specifies whether to ignore ssl certificate # errors when contacting the gitfs backend. You might want to set this to # false if you're using a git backend that uses a self-signed certificate but # keep in mind that setting this flag to anything other than the default of True # is a security concern, you may want to try using the ssh transport. #gitfs_ssl_verify: True # # The gitfs_root option gives the ability to serve files from a subdirectory # within the repository. The path is defined relative to the root of the # repository and defaults to the repository root. #gitfs_root: somefolder/otherfolder ##### Pillar settings ##### ########################################## # Salt Pillars allow for the building of global data that can be made selectively # available to different minions based on minion grain filtering. The Salt # Pillar is laid out in the same fashion as the file server, with environments, # a top file and sls files. However, pillar data does not need to be in the # highstate format, and is generally just key/value pairs. #pillar_roots: # base: # - /srv/pillar # #ext_pillar: # - hiera: /etc/hiera.yaml # - cmd_yaml: cat /etc/salt/yaml # The pillar_gitfs_ssl_verify option specifies whether to ignore ssl certificate # errors when contacting the pillar gitfs backend. You might want to set this to # false if you're using a git backend that uses a self-signed certificate but # keep in mind that setting this flag to anything other than the default of True # is a security concern, you may want to try using the ssh transport. #pillar_gitfs_ssl_verify: True # The pillar_opts option adds the master configuration file data to a dict in # the pillar called "master". This is used to set simple configurations in the # master config file that can then be used on minions. #pillar_opts: True ##### Syndic settings ##### ########################################## # The Salt syndic is used to pass commands through a master from a higher # master. Using the syndic is simple, if this is a master that will have # syndic servers(s) below it set the "order_masters" setting to True, if this # is a master that will be running a syndic daemon for passthrough the # "syndic_master" setting needs to be set to the location of the master server # to receive commands from. # Set the order_masters setting to True if this master will command lower # masters' syndic interfaces. #order_masters: False # If this master will be running a salt syndic daemon, syndic_master tells # this master where to receive commands from. #syndic_master: masterofmaster # This is the 'ret_port' of the MasterOfMaster: #syndic_master_port: 4506 # PID file of the syndic daemon: #syndic_pidfile: /var/run/salt-syndic.pid # LOG file of the syndic daemon: #syndic_log_file: syndic.log ##### Peer Publish settings ##### ########################################## # Salt minions can send commands to other minions, but only if the minion is # allowed to. By default "Peer Publication" is disabled, and when enabled it # is enabled for specific minions and specific commands. This allows secure # compartmentalization of commands based on individual minions. # The configuration uses regular expressions to match minions and then a list # of regular expressions to match functions. The following will allow the # minion authenticated as foo.example.com to execute functions from the test # and pkg modules. #peer: # foo.example.com: # - test.* # - pkg.* # # This will allow all minions to execute all commands: #peer: # .*: # - .* # # This is not recommended, since it would allow anyone who gets root on any # single minion to instantly have root on all of the minions! # Minions can also be allowed to execute runners from the salt master. # Since executing a runner from the minion could be considered a security risk, # it needs to be enabled. This setting functions just like the peer setting # except that it opens up runners instead of module functions. # # All peer runner support is turned off by default and must be enabled before # using. This will enable all peer runners for all minions: #peer_run: # .*: # - .* # # To enable just the manage.up runner for the minion foo.example.com: #peer_run: # foo.example.com: # - manage.up ##### Mine settings ##### ########################################## # Restrict mine.get access from minions. By default any minion has a full access # to get all mine data from master cache. In acl definion below, only pcre matches # are allowed. # mine_get: # .*: # - .* # # The example below enables minion foo.example.com to get 'network.interfaces' mine # data only, minions web* to get all network.* and disk.* mine data and all other # minions won't get any mine data. # mine_get: # foo.example.com: # - network.interfaces # web.*: # - network.* # - disk.* ##### Logging settings ##### ########################################## # The location of the master log file # The master log can be sent to a regular file, local path name, or network # location. Remote logging works best when configured to use rsyslogd(8) (e.g.: # ``file:///dev/log``), with rsyslogd(8) configured for network logging. The URI # format is: ://:/ #log_file: /var/log/salt/master #log_file: file:///dev/log #log_file: udp://loghost:10514 #log_file: /var/log/salt/master #key_logfile: /var/log/salt/key # The level of messages to send to the console. # One of 'garbage', 'trace', 'debug', info', 'warning', 'error', 'critical'. #log_level: warning # The level of messages to send to the log file. # One of 'garbage', 'trace', 'debug', info', 'warning', 'error', 'critical'. # If using 'log_granular_levels' this must be set to the highest desired level. #log_level_logfile: warning # The date and time format used in log messages. Allowed date/time formating # can be seen here: http://docs.python.org/library/time.html#time.strftime #log_datefmt: '%H:%M:%S' #log_datefmt_logfile: '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S' # The format of the console logging messages. Allowed formatting options can # be seen here: http://docs.python.org/library/logging.html#logrecord-attributes #log_fmt_console: '[%(levelname)-8s] %(message)s' #log_fmt_logfile: '%(asctime)s,%(msecs)03.0f [%(name)-17s][%(levelname)-8s] %(message)s' # This can be used to control logging levels more specificically. This # example sets the main salt library at the 'warning' level, but sets # 'salt.modules' to log at the 'debug' level: # log_granular_levels: # 'salt': 'warning' # 'salt.modules': 'debug' # #log_granular_levels: {} ##### Node Groups ##### ########################################## # Node groups allow for logical groupings of minion nodes. A group consists of a group # name and a compound target. #nodegroups: # group1: 'L@foo.domain.com,bar.domain.com,baz.domain.com and bl*.domain.com' # group2: 'G@os:Debian and foo.domain.com' ##### Range Cluster settings ##### ########################################## # The range server (and optional port) that serves your cluster information # https://github.com/ytoolshed/range/wiki/%22yamlfile%22-module-file-spec # #range_server: range:80 ##### Windows Software Repo settings ##### ############################################## # Location of the repo on the master: #win_repo: '/srv/salt/win/repo' # Location of the master's repo cache file: #win_repo_mastercachefile: '/srv/salt/win/repo/winrepo.p' # List of git repositories to include with the local repo: #win_gitrepos: # - 'https://github.com/saltstack/salt-winrepo.git'
