Verify Minions have joined the Master¶

If you are not sure whether or not a Minion has been joined the Master, verify the output of salt-key. The output of the command lists all known keys in the following states:

• Accepted

  Nodes in this state have successfully joined the Salt Master

• Denied

  Nodes in this state have not successfully joined because of a bad, duplicate, or rejected key. Nodes in this state require additional user action to join the Master.

• Rejected

  Nodes in this state have been explicitly rejected by an administrator.

To verify Minions have joined the Master, run:

salt-key

Example of a system response:

Accepted Keys:
<NODE_NAME>.domain.local
… [snip] ...
Execute salt-key:
Denied Keys:
Unaccepted Keys:
Rejected Keys:
