salt.thorium.status¶

Track status beacon events and maintain a register of active minions.

This module is the foundation for health-oriented Thorium formulas. It records the latest status beacon payload and the receive time for each minion so later states can reason about stale or missing check-ins.

salt.thorium.status.reg(name)¶

Activate this register to turn on a minion status tracking register, this register keeps the current status beacon data and the time that each beacon was last checked in.

This state watches events whose tag matches salt/beacon/*/status/*. It is commonly paired with key.timeout to reject or delete keys for minions that stop reporting.
