1 year ago @MAH69IK Salt used to have a problem using Salt to upgrade Salt, due to chicken and egg problems, in that Salt is active installing itself and has issues with restarting itself. This is supposed to have been fixed.
However if you do a pkg.upgrade and Salt is in the list, it lose the connection to the minion. It comes back after the new version starts. Here are some SLS files to handle minion upgrades, that you can try.
root@tdeb11:/srv/salt# cat chk_upgrade.sls
pkg.refresh_db:
module.run
at:
pkg.latest:
- only_upgrade: True
- refresh: True
- pkgs:
- 'salt-minion'
