salt.fileserver.minionfs¶

Fileserver backend which serves files pushed to the Master

The cp.push function allows Minions to push files up to the Master. Using this backend, these pushed files are exposed to other Minions via the Salt fileserver.

To enable minionfs, file_recv needs to be set to True in the master config file (otherwise cp.push will not be allowed to push files to the Master), and minionfs must be added to the fileserver_backends list.

fileserver_backend:
  - minionfs

Other minionfs settings include: minionfs_whitelist, minionfs_blacklist, minionfs_mountpoint, and minionfs_env.
