Targeting using Pillar
Pillar data can be used when targeting minions. This allows for ultimate control and flexibility when targeting minions.
Note
To start using Pillar targeting it is required to make a Pillar data
cache on Salt Master for each Minion via following commands:
salt '*' saltutil.refresh_pillar or
salt '*' saltutil.sync_all. Also Pillar data cache will be
populated during the highstate <running-highstate> run. Once Pillar
data changes, you must refresh the cache by running above commands for
this targeting method to work correctly.
Example:
salt -I 'somekey:specialvalue' test.versionLike with Grains <targeting-grains>, it is possible to use
globbing as well as match nested values in Pillar, by adding colons for
each level that is being traversed. The below example would match
minions with a pillar named foo, which is a dict containing
a key bar, with a value beginning with
baz:
salt -I 'foo:bar:baz*' test.version
