NAME

       salt-cp - salt-cp Documentation

       Copy a file to a set of systems

SYNOPSIS

          salt-cp '*' [ options ] SOURCE DEST

          salt-cp -E '.*' [ options ] SOURCE DEST

          salt-cp -G 'os:Arch.*' [ options ] SOURCE DEST

DESCRIPTION

       Salt copy copies a local file out to all of the Salt minions matched by the given target.

       Note: salt-cp uses salt's publishing mechanism. This means the privacy of the contents of the file on the
       wire is completely dependent upon the transport in use. In addition, if the salt-master is  running  with
       debug logging it is possible that the contents of the file will be logged to disk.

OPTIONS

       --version
              Print the version of Salt that is running.

       --versions-report
              Show program's dependencies and version number, and then exit

       -h, --help
              Show the help message and exit

       -c CONFIG_DIR, --config-dir=CONFIG_dir
              The  location of the Salt configuration directory. This directory contains the configuration files
              for Salt master and minions. The default location on most systems is /etc/salt.

       -t TIMEOUT, --timeout=TIMEOUT
              The timeout in seconds to wait for replies from the Salt minions. The timeout number specifies how
              long the command line client will wait to query the minions and check on running jobs. Default: 5

   Logging Options
       Logging options which override any settings defined on the configuration files.

       -l LOG_LEVEL, --log-level=LOG_LEVEL
              Console  logging  log  level.  One  of  all,  garbage,  trace, debug, info, warning, error, quiet.
              Default: warning.

       --log-file=LOG_FILE
              Log file path. Default: /var/log/salt/master.

       --log-file-level=LOG_LEVEL_LOGFILE
              Logfile logging log level. One of  all,  garbage,  trace,  debug,  info,  warning,  error,  quiet.
              Default: warning.

   Target Selection
       -E, --pcre
              The target expression will be interpreted as a PCRE regular expression rather than a shell glob.

       -L, --list
              The    target   expression   will   be   interpreted   as   a   comma-delimited   list;   example:
              server1.foo.bar,server2.foo.bar,example7.quo.qux

       -G, --grain
              The target expression matches values returned by the Salt grains system on the minions. The target
              expression is in the format of '<grain value>:<glob expression>'; example: 'os:Arch*'

              This was changed in version 0.9.8 to accept glob expressions instead of regular expression. To use
              regular expression matching with grains, use the --grain-pcre option.

       --grain-pcre
              The target expression matches values returned by the Salt grains system on the minions. The target
              expression is in the format of '<grain value>:< regular expression>'; example: 'os:Arch.*'

       -N, --nodegroup
              Use a predefined compound target defined in the Salt master configuration file.

       -R, --range
              Instead  of  using shell globs to evaluate the target, use a range expression to identify targets.
              Range expressions look like %cluster.

              Using the Range option requires that a range server is set up and the location of the range server
              is referenced in the master configuration file.
