=======
Windows
=======
Salt has full support for running the Salt Minion on Windows.
There are no plans for the foreseeable future to develop a Salt Master on
Windows. For now you must run your Salt Master on a supported operating system
to control your Salt Minions on Windows.
Many of the standard Salt modules have been ported to work on Windows and many
of the Salt States currently work on Windows, as well.
Windows Installer
=================
Salt Minion Windows installers can be found here. The output of `md5sum <salt
minion exe>` should match the contents of the corresponding md5 file.

.. note::
The executables above will install dependencies that the Salt minion
requires.
The 64bit installer has been tested on Windows 7 64bit and Windows Server
2008R2 64bit. The 32bit installer has been tested on Windows 2003 Server 32bit.
Please file a bug report on our GitHub repo if issues for other platforms are
found.
The installer asks for 2 bits of information; the master hostname and the
minion name. The installer will update the minion config with these options and
then start the minion.
The `salt-minion` service will appear in the Windows Service Manager and can be
started and stopped there or with the command line program `sc` like any other
Windows service.
If the minion won't start, try installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 x64 SP1
redistributable. Allow all Windows updates to run salt-minion smoothly.
Silent Installer option
=======================
The installer can be run silently by providing the `/S` option at the command
line. The options `/master` and `/minion-name` allow for configuring the master
hostname and minion name, respectively. Here's an example of using the silent
installer:
.. code-block:: bash
Salt-Minion-0.17.0-Setup-amd64.exe /S /master=yoursaltmaster /minion-name=yourminionname
Setting up a Windows build environment
======================================
1. Install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable, `vcredist_x86`_
or `vcredist_x64`_.
2. Install `msysgit`_
3. Clone the Salt git repository from GitHub
.. code-block:: bash
git clone git://github.com/saltstack/salt.git
4. Install the latest point release of `Python 2.7`_ for the architecture you
wish to target
5. Add C:\\Python27 and C:\\Python27\\Scripts to your system path
6. Download and run the Setuptools bootstrap - `ez_setup.py`_
.. code-block:: bash
python ez_setup.py
7. Install Pip
.. code-block:: bash
easy_install pip
8. Install the latest point release of `OpenSSL for Windows`_
#. During setup, choose first option to install in Windows system
directory
9. Install the latest point release of `M2Crypto`_
#. In general, be sure to download installers targeted at py2.7 for your
chosen architecture
10. Install the latest point release of `pycrypto`_
11. Install the latest point release of `pywin32`_
12. Install the latest point release of `Cython`_
13. Install the latest point release of `jinja2`_
14. Install the latest point release of `msgpack`_
15. Install psutil
.. code-block:: bash
easy_install psutil
16. Install pyzmq
.. code-block:: bash
easy_install pyzmq
17. Install PyYAML
.. code-block:: bash
easy_install pyyaml
18. Install bbfreeze
.. code-block:: bash
easy_install bbfreeze
19. Install wmi
.. code-block:: bash
pip install wmi
20. Install esky
.. code-block:: bash
pip install esky
21. Install Salt
.. code-block:: bash
cd salt
python setup.py install
22. Build a frozen binary distribution of Salt
.. code-block:: bash
python setup.py bdist_esky
A zip file has been created in the ``dist/`` folder, containing a frozen copy
of Python and the dependency libraries, along with Windows executables for each
of the Salt scripts.
Building the installer
======================
The Salt Windows installer is built with the open-source NSIS compiler. The
source for the installer is found in the pkg directory of the Salt repo here:
:blob:`pkg/windows/installer/Salt-Minion-Setup.nsi`. To create the installer,
extract the frozen archive from ``dist/`` into ``pkg/windows/buildenv/`` and
run NSIS.
The NSIS installer can be found here: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page
Testing the Salt minion
=======================
1. Create the directory C:\\salt (if it doesn't exist already)
2. Copy the example ``conf`` and ``var`` directories from
``pkg/windows/buildenv/`` into C:\\salt
3. Edit C:\\salt\\conf\\minion
.. code-block:: bash
master: ipaddress or hostname of your salt-master
4. Start the salt-minion
.. code-block:: bash
cd C:\Python27\Scripts
python salt-minion
5. On the salt-master accept the new minion's key
.. code-block:: bash
sudo salt-key -A
This accepts all unaccepted keys. If you're concerned about security just
accept the key for this specific minion.
6. Test that your minion is responding
On the salt-master run:
.. code-block:: bash
sudo salt '*' test.ping
You should get the following response: ``{'your minion hostname': True}``
Single command bootstrap script
===============================
On a 64 bit Windows host the following script makes an unattended install of
salt, including all dependencies:
.. admonition:: Not up to date.
This script is not up to date. Please use the installer found above
.. code-block:: bash
# (All in one line.)
"PowerShell (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('http://csa-net.dk/salt/bootstrap64.bat','C:\bootstrap.bat');(New-Object -com Shell.Application).ShellExecute('C:\bootstrap.bat');"
You can execute the above command remotely from a Linux host using winexe:
.. code-block:: bash
winexe -U "administrator" //fqdn "PowerShell (New-Object ......);"
For more info check `http://csa-net.dk/salt`_
Packages management under Windows 2003
======================================
On windows Server 2003, you need to install optional component "wmi windows
installer provider" to have full list of installed packages. If you don't have
this, salt-minion can't report some installed softwares.
