CLI tool that installs and configures salt-minion on minion machines over salt-ssh.

This tool performs the following tasks on each minion in the salt-ssh roster file located at /etc/salt/roster:

  • Bootstraps the salt-minion service
  • Sets the salt-master on each minion
  • Generates keys on the master and distributes to each minion
  • Restarts the salt-minion service

The credentials provided in the roster file must allow sudoing without a password for this tool to work.
