Autoaccept minions from Grains
==============================
.. versionadded:: Oxygen
To automatically accept minions based on certain characteristics, e.g. the ``uuid``
you can specify certain grain values on the salt master. Minions with matching grains
will have their keys automatically accepted.
1. Configure the autosign_grains_dir in the master config file:
.. code-block:: yaml
autosign_grains_dir: /etc/salt/autosign_grains
2. Configure the grain values to be accepted
Place a file named like the grain in the autosign_grains_dir and write the values that
should be accepted automatically inside that file. For example to automatically
accept minions based on their ``uuid`` create a file named ``/etc/salt/autosign_grains/uuid``:
.. code-block:: none
8f7d68e2-30c5-40c6-b84a-df7e978a03ee
1d3c5473-1fbc-479e-b0c7-877705a0730f
The master is now setup to accept minions with either of the two specified uuids.
Multiple values must always be written into separate lines.
Lines starting with a ``#`` are ignored.
3. Configure the minion to send the specific grains to the master in the minion config file:
.. code-block:: yaml
autosign_grains:
- uuid
Now you should be able to start salt-minion and run ``salt-call
state.apply`` or any other salt commands that require master authentication.
