prod-lb-1.redshelf.com:
    Passed invalid arguments to state.highstate: expected string or buffer

        Retrieve the state data from the salt master for this minion and execute it

        test
            Notify states to execute in test-only (dry-run) mode.

            Sets the ``test`` variable in the minion ``opts`` for the duration of
            the state run.
        pillar
            Custom Pillar data can be passed with the ``pillar`` kwarg. Values
            passed here will override hard-coded Pillar values.
        queue : ``False``
            Instead of failing immediately when another state run is in progress,
            queue the new state run to begin running once the other has finished.

            This option starts a new thread for each queued state run so use this
            option sparingly.
        localconfig:
            Instead of using running minion opts, load ``localconfig`` and merge that
            with the running minion opts. This functionality is intended for using
            "roots" of salt directories (with their own minion config, pillars,
            file_roots) to run highstate out of.

        mock:
            The mock option allows for the state run to execute without actually
            calling any states. This then returns a mocked return which will show
            the requisite ordering as well as fully validate the state run.

        CLI Example:

        .. code-block:: bash

            salt '*' state.highstate

            salt '*' state.highstate whitelist=sls1_to_run,sls2_to_run
            salt '*' state.highstate exclude=sls_to_exclude
            salt '*' state.highstate exclude="[{'id': 'id_to_exclude'}, {'sls': 'sls_to_exclude'}]"

            salt '*' state.highstate pillar="{foo: 'Foo!', bar: 'Bar!'}"
