salt:tldr:16902

This command is using SaltStack, a configuration management and remote execution system, to run a command on a specified minion.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

• salt: The command to interact with a SaltStack infrastructure.
• '${minion_id}': The placeholder ${minion_id} should be replaced with the actual name or ID of the targeted minion. The command will be executed on this specific minion.
• cmd.run: A SaltStack module that allows running a command on the minion's command line.
• "ls ": The command to be executed on the minion. In this case, it is executing the "ls" command, which lists the files and directories in the current working directory. The space after "ls" is there to include a space in the command output.

So, when this command is executed, it will run the "ls" command on the specified minion, resulting in a list of files and directories in the minion's current working directory.
