A Salt Demo using Vagrant.
This demo requires libvirt
with at least one supported hypervisor, this guide will be KVM/QEMU specific.
In addition, the vagrant-libvirt plugin is needed to utilize libvirt:
vagrant plugin install vagrant-libvirt
Run the following commands in a terminal. Vagrant, Git and any guide-specific packages specified in the Requirements section must already be installed.
git clone https://github.com/stiftcast/salt-vagrant-demo.git
cd salt-vagrant-demo
vagrant up
To be able to spin up VMs using libvirt as a non-root user, it may be required to follow the instructions here.
This will download a generic Ubuntu 18.04 image and create three virtual
machines for you. One will be a Salt Master named master
and two will be Salt
Minions named minion1
and minion2
. The Salt Minions will point to the Salt
Master and the Minion's keys will already be accepted. Because the keys are
pre-generated and reside in the repo, please be sure to regenerate new keys if
you use this for production purposes.
You can then run the following commands to log into the Salt Master and begin using Salt.
vagrant ssh master
sudo salt \* test.ping
