salt.modules.status

Module for returning various status data about a minion. These data can be useful for compiling into stats later.

salt.modules.status.all_status()

Return a composite of all status data and info for this minion. Warning: There is a LOT here!

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.all_status
salt.modules.status.cpuinfo()

Changed in version 2016.3.2: Return the CPU info for this minion

Changed in version 2016.11.4: Added support for AIX

Changed in version 2018.3.0: Added support for NetBSD and OpenBSD

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.cpuinfo
salt.modules.status.cpustats()

Return the CPU stats for this minion

Changed in version 2016.11.4: Added support for AIX

Changed in version 2018.3.0: Added support for OpenBSD

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.cpustats
salt.modules.status.custom()

Return a custom composite of status data and info for this minion, based on the minion config file. An example config like might be:

status.cpustats.custom: [ 'cpu', 'ctxt', 'btime', 'processes' ]

Where status refers to status.py, cpustats is the function where we get our data, and custom is this function It is followed by a list of keys that we want returned.

This function is meant to replace all_status(), which returns anything and everything, which we probably don't want.

By default, nothing is returned. Warning: Depending on what you include, there can be a LOT here!

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.custom
salt.modules.status.diskstats()

Changed in version 2016.3.2: Return the disk stats for this minion

Changed in version 2016.11.4: Added support for AIX

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.diskstats
salt.modules.status.diskusage(*args)

Return the disk usage for this minion

Usage:

salt '*' status.diskusage [paths and/or filesystem types]

CLI Example:

salt '*' status.diskusage         # usage for all filesystems
salt '*' status.diskusage / /tmp  # usage for / and /tmp
salt '*' status.diskusage ext?    # usage for ext[234] filesystems
salt '*' status.diskusage / ext?  # usage for / and all ext filesystems
salt.modules.status.loadavg()
