.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Salt Cloud is the system used to provision virtual machines on various public
clouds via a cleanly controlled profile and mapping system.
.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
.SS Execution Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-L LOCATION, \-\-location=LOCATION
Specify which region to connect to.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-a ACTION, \-\-action=ACTION
Perform an action that may be specific to this cloud provider. This
argument requires one or more instance names to be specified.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-f <FUNC\-NAME> <PROVIDER>, \-\-function=<FUNC\-NAME> <PROVIDER>
Perform an function that may be specific to this cloud provider, that does
not apply to an instance. This argument requires a provider to be specified
(i.e.: nova).
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-p PROFILE, \-\-profile=PROFILE
Select a single profile to build the named cloud VMs from. The profile must
be defined in the specified profiles file.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-m MAP, \-\-map=MAP
Specify a map file to use. If used without any other options, this option
will ensure that all of the mapped VMs are created. If the named VM already
exists then it will be skipped.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-H, \-\-hard
When specifying a map file, the default behavior is to ensure that all of
the VMs specified in the map file are created. If the \-\-hard option is
set, then any VMs that exist on configured cloud providers that are
not specified in the map file will be destroyed. Be advised that this can
be a destructive operation and should be used with care.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-d, \-\-destroy
Pass in the name(s) of VMs to destroy, salt\-cloud will search the
configured cloud providers for the specified names and destroy the
VMs. Be advised that this is a destructive operation and should be used
with care. Can be used in conjunction with the \-m option to specify a map
of VMs to be deleted.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-P, \-\-parallel
Normally when building many cloud VMs they are executed serially. The \-P
option will run each cloud vm build in a separate process allowing for
large groups of VMs to be build at once.
.sp
Be advised that some cloud provider\(aqs systems don\(aqt seem to be well suited
for this influx of vm creation. When creating large groups of VMs watch the
cloud provider carefully.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-u, \-\-update\-bootstrap
Update salt\-bootstrap to the latest develop version on GitHub.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0

.B \-y, \-\-assume\-yes
Default yes in answer to all confirmation questions.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-k, \-\-keep\-tmp
Do not remove files from /tmp/ after deploy.sh finishes.
.UNINDENT

.TP
.B \-\-show\-deploy\-args
Include the options used to deploy the minion in the data returned.

Script arguments to be fed to the bootstrap script when deploying the VM.
.UNINDENT
.SS Query Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP

configured cloud providers
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-F, \-\-full\-query
Execute a query and print out all available information about all cloud VMs.
Can be used in conjunction with \-m to display only information about the
specified map.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-S, \-\-select\-query
Execute a query and print out selected information about all cloud VMs.
Can be used in conjunction with \-m to display only information about the
specified map.

Display a list of configured providers.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-list\-profiles
New in version 2014.7.0.
.sp

the provider\(aqs associated profiles, such as \fBdigital_ocean\fP, or pass in
\fBall\fP to list all the configured profiles.
.UNINDENT
.SS Cloud Providers Listings
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-list\-locations=LIST_LOCATIONS
Display a list of locations available in configured cloud providers. Pass
the cloud provider that available locations are desired on, aka "linode",
or pass "all" to list locations for all configured cloud providers
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-list\-images=LIST_IMAGES
Display a list of images available in configured cloud providers. Pass the
cloud provider that available images are desired on, aka "linode", or pass

.TP
.B \-\-list\-sizes=LIST_SIZES
Display a list of sizes available in configured cloud providers. Pass the
cloud provider that available sizes are desired on, aka "AWS", or pass
"all" to list sizes for all configured cloud providers
.UNINDENT
.SS Cloud Credentials
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-set\-password=<USERNAME> <PROVIDER>
Configure password for a cloud provider and save it to the keyring.
PROVIDER can be specified with or without a driver, for example:
"\-\-set\-password bob rackspace" or more specific "\-\-set\-password bob
rackspace:openstack" DEPRECATED!
.UNINDENT
.SS Output Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out
Pass in an alternative outputter to display the return of data. This
outputter can be any of the available outputters:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
\fBgrains\fP, \fBhighstate\fP, \fBjson\fP, \fBkey\fP, \fBoverstatestage\fP, \fBpprint\fP, \fBraw\fP, \fBtxt\fP, \fByaml\fP
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Some outputters are formatted only for data returned from specific
functions; for instance, the \fBgrains\fP outputter will not work for non\-grains
data.
.sp
If an outputter is used that does not support the data passed into it, then
Salt will fall back on the \fBpprint\fP outputter and display the return data
using the Python \fBpprint\fP standard library module.
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
If using \fB\-\-out=json\fP, you will probably want \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
Without the static option, you will get a separate JSON string per minion
which makes JSON output invalid as a whole.
This is due to using an iterative outputter. So if you want to feed it
to a JSON parser, use \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out\-indent OUTPUT_INDENT, \-\-output\-indent OUTPUT_INDENT
Print the output indented by the provided value in spaces. Negative values
disable indentation. Only applicable in outputters that support
indentation.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out\-file=OUTPUT_FILE, \-\-output\-file=OUTPUT_FILE
Write the output to the specified file.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-no\-color
Disable all colored output
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-force\-color
Force colored output
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
When using colored output the color codes are as follows:
.sp
\fBgreen\fP denotes success, \fBred\fP denotes failure, \fBblue\fP denotes
changes and success and \fByellow\fP denotes a expected future change in configuration.
